Show Pony Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Am][Em][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Show pony,
make it burn
[Am]Smile as the knife is turned
[Em]Show pony making a return
[D]I guess he's right that you-

[Verse 2]
I'll be[C]gin at the beginning,
you met in New York City
He was [G]sitting like a prince on the
stairs of his old building
And he [Em]kissed you, you were finished,
two months in a minute
[D]Married at a desk in your
sundress with a witness
Had a [C]honeymoon in Texas,
went to Little Venice
[G]Told him with your eyes,
now you're crying in the clinic
And we [Em]pile into the Plymouth,
haircuts in the kitchen
He [D]always fell asleep just before
the movie finished

[Verse 3]
But you [C]don't, baby, you're alone
Echoes in your [G]head,
pressed into the floor
Two-dimensional,
[Em]when's when's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're [D]dead?
Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you
And he [G]loved you in a T-shirt, mmh
mmh
All the [Am]memories inside
your curves
Now you're [C]coming back to
show us that, girl
So roll those [D]credits 'cause the

[Verse 4]
sequel's gonna hurt, mmh
[G]Show pony, make it burn
[Am]Smile as the knife is turned
[Em]Show pony making a return
[D]As we make our way through the universe
[G]Show pony making it burn
[Am]That's how revenge is served
[Em]Make it so cold that it hurts
[D]I guess he's right that you live
and learn
[G][Am][Em]

[Verse 5]
[D]
It's [C]how the story goes,
ramen on your own
[G]Waiting by the phone,
lipstick on the coat
[Em]Waiting by the door,
you live in his clothes
[D]You would make a joke that
you had none of your own
[C]All that shit I learned from you
[Bm]Kindness spilled like milk and juice
[D]So blindsided by the truth
[Em]In some way, I was sure you knew

[Verse 6]
But you [C]don't, baby, you're alone
Echoes in your [G]head,
pressed into the floor
Two-dimensional,
[Em]when's when's it gonna end?
Maybe when you're [D]dead?
Maybe you're a fool, but he loved you
And he [G]loved you in a T-shirt, mmh
mmh
All the [Am]memories inside
your curves
Now you're [C]coming back to
show us that, girl
So roll those [D]credits 'cause

[Verse 7]
the sequel's gonna hurt, mmh
[G]Show pony, make it burn
[Am]Smile as the knife is turned
[Em]Show pony making a return
[D]As we make our way through the

[Interlude 1]
universe
[G][Am][Em][D]

[Verse 8]
[G]All those nights he left you and me
There was [Am]nothing left of you,
but he squeezed
[Em]All those times he did what he pleased
[D]Boy, those scars must really run deep
And [G]all that hurt comes
out in one scream
And it [Am]pierced him like
the paper receipt
That you [Em]got that time
you went for food
[D]That first night that he saw you

[Verse 9]
[G]Show pony, make it burn
[Am]Smile as the knife is turned
[Em]Show pony making a return
[D]As we make our way through the universe
[G]Show pony making it burn
[Am]That's how revenge is served
[Em]Make it so cold that it hurts
[D]I guess he's right that you live and learn
