Song:Conversations About a Friend (Who s in Love with Katie)
Album: Begonias (2005)
Standard Tuning Capo 2
Katie s gone to California
She read there s something in the air
She s got her pockets full of Dixie
She just might make it halfway there
Katie s gone to California
To see the ocean fine and red
She s as fragile as begonias
Katie s gone to California
I think he might be going there
Didn t speak his mind the way he wanted
He told me time was running out
Oh he said that he had called her
You know we all had our doubts
I heard her family didn t like him
Well it s only chance they ever met
Her daddy said he talked like Nixon
Now there s a line I can t forget
Katie s gone to California
She thinks she s got the Do Re Mi
Got her pockets full of Dixie
She just might make it to Moline
I should ve known first time I saw her
Their introduction I regret
We all worried he was lonesome
Don t blame yourself for how things went
We all watched them on their first date
They never even knew that we were there
This is a one show town, honey
We just couldn t help but stare
Katie s gone to California
To see the ocean fine and red
She s as fragile as begonias
Katie s gone to California
I think he might be going there
(Instrumental Break) (3:45-4:08)
There s Olly walking through the doorway
Flag him over, let s talk to him
I hope he s doing fine for love sake
He ll pass her by on highway ten
Sometimes friends with good intentions
Can drive a good man to his end
These aren t the first dreams ever wasted
We just wish it wasn t him
Katie s gone to California
She read there s something in the air
She s got her pockets full of Dixie
She just might make it halfway there
Katie s gone to California
To see the ocean fine and red
She s as fragile as begonias
Katie s gone to California
I think he might be going there
(Long Instrumental Outro) (5:56-7:24)
