Chords with lyrics
[Verse]
E MajorE
Kaw-liga was a wooden Indian standing by the door.
E MajorE
He fell in love with an Indian maiden over in the antique store.
B7B7
Kaw-liga??., just stood there and never let it show,
E MajorE
So she could never answer yes or no.
E MajorE
He always wore his Sunday feathers and held a tommy hawk.
The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk.
B7B7 E MajorE
Kaw liga, too stubborn to ever show a sign, Because his heart was made of knotty pine.
[Chorus]
E MajorE A augmentedA
Poor ol' Kaw liga, he never got a kiss. Poor ol' Kaw liga, he don't know what he missed.
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE
Is it any wonder that his face is red? Kaw-liga, that poor ol' wooden head.
[Verse]
E MajorE
Kaw-liga was a lonely Indian, never went nowhere.
E MajorE
His heart was set on the Indian maid with the coal black hair.
B7B7
Kaw-liga, just stood there and never let it show,
E MajorE
So she could never answer yes or no.
E MajorE
And then one day a wealthy customer bought the Indian maid,
E MajorE
And took her, oh, so far away, but ol' Kaw liga stayed.
B7B7 E MajorE
Kaw liga, just stands there as lonely as can be, And wishes he was still an old pine tree.
[Chorus]
E MajorE A augmentedA
Poor ol' Kaw liga, he never got a kiss. Poor ol' Kaw liga, he don't know what he missed.
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE
Is it any wonder that his face is red? Kaw-liga, that poor ol' wooden head.
