Sons of the Pioneers
Every [C] day, along about evening, when the [C] sunlight’s beginning to [C7] pale. I ride [F7] through the slumbering shadows, [C] Along the Navajo Trail.
When it’s [C] nighttime and crickets are callin’, and the [C] coyotes are making a [C7] wail. I [F7] dream by a smoldering fire, [C] Along the Navajo Trail.
> > > I [F] love to lie and [Fm] listen to the [C] music [C7]
When the [F] wind is strummin’ a [Fm] sagebrush [C] guitar
[Am] When over [E] yonder hill the moon is [Am] climbin’
[D] It always finds me wishin’ on [G] a star [G7]
Well whadya [C] know, it’s mornin’ already. There’s the [C] dawnin’, so silver and [C7] pale. [F7] It’s time to climb into my saddle, [C] And ride the Navajo Trail
