[Em]
Elijah was a wooden Indian standing by the door.
He fell in love with an Indian maid over in the antique store.
Elijah just stood there and never let [B] it show.
So she could never answer yes [Em] or no.
He always wore his Sunday feathers and held the Tommy Hawk.
The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk.
Elijah, too stubborn to ever [B] show a sign, because his heart was made of [Em] knotty pine.
[E] Oh, Elijah, he never got a kiss.
[A] Oh, Elijah, he don't know what he missed.
[E] Is it any wonder that his face [B] is red?
Elijah, that poor old [E] wooden head.
[A]
[E]
[B] [Em]
Elijah was a lonely Indian, never went nowhere.
His heart was set on the Indian maid with the cold black hair.
Elijah just stood there and never [F#m] let it show.
[B] So she could never answer [Em] yes or no.
And then one day a wealthy customer bought the Indian maid and took her oh so far away.
But old Elijah stayed.
Elijah just stands there as lonely as [B] can be and wishes he was still an old [Em] pine tree.
[E]
Oh, Elijah, he never got a kiss.
[A]
Oh, Elijah, he don't know what he missed.
[E]
Is it any wonder that his face [B] is red?
Elijah, that [A] poor old [Em] wooden head.
