Capo 2 (or wherever suits your singing voice)
Verse:
G
Well its two eggs up on whiskey toast
Amss
Homefries on the side
C-i
Wash it down with a road house coffee
D
Man it burns up your insides
G
It was a Canyon Colorado diner
Amss
and a waitress I did love||
C-i
she sat beside me 'neath an old stuffed bear
D
and a warn out navajo rug
Chorus:
D G Em
Well, Aye aye aye, Katy
C-i D
Shades of red and blue
G Em
Well, Aye aye aye, Katy
C-i D G
Whatever became of your navajo rug and you
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jerry_jeff_walker/navajo_rug_crd.html ]
Ol' Jack the boss he leaves about six
and it's Katy bar the door
she'd pull down that navajo rug
and spread it across that floor
Well I saw lightning across the sacred mountains
the wooing of a turtle dove
lying next to Katy
on that old navajo rug
Chorus
I saw ol' Jack about a year ago
he said the place burned to the ground
and as for my Katy dear
she done gone and left town
Oh but Katy got her souvenir
he spit out a Red Man plug
You should have seen her runnin' through the smoke
she was draggin' that navajo rug
Chorus
So every time a cross the Sacred Mountains
and lightning breaks above
it takes me back to a simpler time
with my long lost Katy love
Yea but everything keeps on moving
seems like the whole worlds on the go
you don't find things that last anymore
like a hand woven navajo
Chorus x2
