( capo 2nd fret )
intro : G Em C due
verse 1 . sa
D G amoi
well it’s two eggs up on whiskey toast * and home fries on the side
C Am7 D
wash it down with the truck coffee * burns up your insides
G Am
just a canyon – colorado diner * and a waitress i did love
C
we sat in the back ’neath an old stuffed bear
D ( stop )
on a worn out navajo rug
verse 2 .
G Am
well old jack , the boss , he closed at six * and it was katie bar the door
Am7 D
she’d pull down that navajo rug * and she’d spread it ’cross the floor
G
hey , i saw lightning in the sacred mountains
Am C
saw the dance of turtle doves * sittin’ next to katie
D
on that old navajo rug
( chorus )
D G Em C D
aye , aye , aye , katie * shades of red and blue
G Em C G
aye , aye , aye , katie * whatever became of the navajo rug and you
Em C D
katie , shades of red and blue
verse 3 .
well i saw old jack about a year ago
he said the place burned to the ground
and all i saved was an old bear tooth
and katie , she’d left town
ah , but katie , she got her souvenir too
jack spat a tobacco plug
well you should have seen her A – coming through the smoke
draggin’ that navajo rug
( repeat chorus )
verse 4 .
now every time i cross those sacred mountains
and lightning breaks from above
it always takes me back in time
to my long lost katie love
but everything keeps on A – movin’
yeah , an’ everybody’s on the go
you don’t find things that last anymore
like an old woven navajo
( repeat chorus twice and fade )
