Capo 4
Am C A2 E
Am E7sus4
There are watercolour ponies
Am Gm C7
On my refrigerater door
F C7
And the shape of something
Bm7 E7 Am F E
I don't really recognize
Am E7sus4 E7
Drawn by careful little fingers
Am Gm C7
And put proudly on display
F C Bm7
A reminder to us all
E7 Am Fmaj7 G Fmaj7 G
Of how time flies
Am E7sus4
Seems an endless mound of laundry
Am Gm C7
And a stairway laced with toys
F C7
Gives a blow by blow
Bm7 E7 Am F E
Reminder of the war
Am E7sus4 E7
That we fight for their well-being
Am Gm C7
For their greater understanding
F Bm7 E7
To impart a holy reverance
A
For the Lord
(chorus)
A E
But, baby, what will we do
F#m7 C#m7

When it comes back to me an you?
D A
They look a little less
Bm7 E A E D
Like little boys every day
A
Oh, the pleasure of watching
E
The children growing
F#m7 C#m7
Is mixed with a bitter cup
D A Bm7
Of knowing the watercolour ponies
D A
Will one day ride away
(bridge)
Fmaj7 G Fmaj7 G
And the vision can get so narrow
C G C
As you view through your tiny world
Gsus4 C
And little victories can go by
G C G C
With no applause
Am
But in the greater evaluation
Em7
As they fly from your nest of love
F C
May they mount up with wings
Bm7 Esus4 E Esus4 E
As eagles for His cause
Bm7 D E D
Ponies Will one day OO one day one day
E Am C Esus4 E Am C Esus4 E A
ride a way OOO
