[G] [G9] [G] [G9]
[G]Somewhere [G9]out on the [G]prairie[G9]
[C]Is the greatest cowboy thatĪs ever [D]been
[G]When he lays his hands upon the [C]ponies[Em] [Am] [G]
D G(III) --- D(X) C(VIII) G(VII)
They shutter with that understanding skin
He says [G]ponies now [G7]ponies donĪt you [C]worry[Em] [Am] [G]
I [D]have not come to steal your fire a[G]way
I want to fly with you across the [C]sunrise[Em] [Am] [G]
And dis[D]cover what begins each shining [G]day[G9] [G] [G9]
When the [G]storm clouds in the [G7]west are quickly [C]gathering[Em] [Am] [G]
[D]Ponies they run wildly before it [G]rains
C(VIII) Em(VII) Am(V) G(III)
YouĪll see their sleek dark bodies brightly gleaminĪ
YouĪll [D]know the fireĪs flying through their [G]brains
He says [G]ponies now [G7]ponies donĪt you [C]worry[Em] [Am] [G]
I [D]have not come to steal your fire a[G]way
I want to fly with you across the [C]sunrise[Em] [Am] [G]
And dis[D]cover what begins each shining [G]day
