G
Somewhere out on the prairie
C G
Is the greatest cowboy that's ever been
G G7 C Am
And when he lays his hands upon the ponies
D D7 G
They shudder with an understanding skin
And he says ponies
G7 C Am
Now ponies don't you worry
D D7 G
I have not come to steal your fire away
G7 D Am
I want to fly with you across the sunrise
D D7 G
Discover what begins each shining day
G G7
When the storm clouds in the west
C Am
Are quickly gathering
D D7
The ponies they run wild there
G
Before it rains
G G7
You'll see their sleek dark bodies
C Am
Brightly gleaming
D D7
You know the fire is flying through
G
Their brains
G
And he says ponies
G7 C Am
Now ponies don't you worry
D D7 G
I have not come to steal your fire away

I want to fly with you across the sunrise

Discover what begins each shining day

And he says ponies

Now ponies don't you worry

I have not come to steal your fire away
