Jerry Jeff Walker – Navajo Rug (Ukulele)

         A
Well its two eggs up on whiskey toast,

E7
Homefries on the side.

D
Wash it down with a road house coffee,

     E7
That burns up your insides.

A
It's just a Canyon Colorado diner,

   E7
A waitress I did love.

    D
We sat in the back 'neath an old stuffed bear,

      E7
On a worn out navajo rug.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                 E7
Shades of red and blue.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                       E7             A
Whatever became of the navajo rug and you?

A
Well Old Jack, the boss, he left at six,

E7
And it's Katie bar the door.

      D
She'd pull down that navajo rug,

         E7
And we'd spread 'cross the floor.

   A
I saw the lightning frame the sacred mountains.

    E7
The wooing of a turtle dove.

      D
Just lying next to Katie,

        E7
On that old navajo rug.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                 E7
Shades of red and blue.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                       E7             A
Whatever became of the navajo rug and you?

A
Well I saw Old Jack about a year ago.

            E7
He said the place burned to the ground.

    D
And all he'd saved was an old bear tooth,

    E7
And Katie, she left town.

     A
Well Katie got a souvenir too, Jack smiled,

      E7
As he spit out a big 'ol plug.

         D
Well you should have seen her, coming through the smoke,

        E7
She was draggin' that Navajo rug.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                 E7
Shades of red and blue.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                       E7             A
Whatever became of the navajo rug and you?

   A
So every time I cross the sacred mountains,

    E7
And lightning jumps above,

   D
It always takes me back in time,

      E7
To my long lost Katie love.

    A
But everything keeps on a-moving.

      E7
Yeah, everybody's on the go.

    D
You don't find things that last anymore,

       E7
Like a hand woven Navajo.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                 E7
Shades of red and blue.

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                       E7             A
Whatever became of the navajo rug and you?

F#m     D                E7
Katie, shades of red and blue

        A    F#m
Aye aye aye, Katie.

D                       E7             A
Whatever became of the navajo rug and you?
