Navajo Rug Sung By: Ian Tyson (My version of this great Ian Tyson song) (Capo 2nd Fret) Intro: G Em C D Verse 1. D G Am 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)
