[Intro]
G
[Verse]
Every Gday along about evening
When  the sunlight's beginning to G7fail
I C7ride through the slumbering Gshadows
AlonD7g the Navajo GTrail
[Verse]
GWhen it's night and crickets are calling
And the coyotes are making a G7wail
I C7dream by a smolderin' Gfire
AlonD7g the Navajo GTrail
[Chorus]
I Clove to lie and Cmlisten to the Gmusic
When the Cwind is strummin' a sCmagebrush guiGtar
While Bmover yonder F#7hill the moon is Bmclimbin'
It Emalways finds me wishin' on a DstarD7  
[Verse]
Well what do you Gknow it's mornin' already
And the dawnin's so silver and G7pale
It's C7time to climb into my Gsaddle
And ridD7e the Navajo GTrail
[Outro]
And ridD7e the Navajo GTrail
