Watercolour Ponies Wayne Watson *The Am9 and Fmmaj7/E should be played as follows to emulate Wayne's concert version of this song: Am9 E:0 B:0 G:5 D:5 A:0 E:x Fmmaj7/E E:0 B:6 G:5 D:6 A:x E:0 I think this is the exact way he plays these two chords in concerts, not on the original album. He finishes the song with a progression that sounds a lot like "Wishing You Were Here" by Chicago and adds these two chords: B11/E E:0 B:4 G:4 D:4 A:0 E:x A#maj13/A E:0 B:3 G:3 D:3 A:0 E:x (Capo 4) Am9 Fmmaj7/E Am9 Fmmaj7/E [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/w/wayne-watson/381991.html ] Am9 FmMaj7/E There are watercolour ponies Am9 Gm C On my refrigerator door F Em Bm7 E7 Am9 Fmmaj7/E In the shape of something I don't really recognize Am9 Fmmaj7/E Brushed with careful little fingers Am9 Gm C And put proudly on display F Em Bm7 E7 Am9 Fmmaj7/E A reminder to us all of how time flies Am9 Fmmaj7/E Seems an endless mound of laundry Am9 Gm C And a stairway laced with toys F Em Bm7 E7 Am9 Fmmaj7/E Gives a blow by blow reminder of the war Am9 Fmmaj7/E That we fight for their well-being Am9 Gm C For their greater understanding F Em Bm7 E7 A To impart a holy reverence for the Lord A E But baby, what will we do F#m C#m When it comes back to me and you D A/C# Bm7 E A E They look a little less like little ones every day A E Oh the pleasure of watchin' the children growin' F#m C#m Is mixed with a bitter cup D A/C# Bm7 Of knowin' the watercolour ponies E A Will one day ride away Fmaj7 G Fmaj7 G And the vision can get so narrow C G - C As you view through your tiny world Gsus G - C G - C And little victories can go by with no applause Am But in the greater evaluation Em As they fly from your nest of love F Em Bm7 E7 Esus E Esus E May they mount up with wings as eagles for His cause A E Still I wonder baby, what will we do F#m C#m When it comes back to me and you D A/C# Bm7 E7 A E They look a little less like little ones every day A E Oh the pleasure of watchin' the children growin' F#m C#m Is mixed with a bitter cup D A/C# Bm7 Of knowin' the watercolour ponies E Will one day Bm7 E Am9 [ch]B11/A[/ch] One day ride away Am9 [ch]B11/E[/ch] Ride Away A#maj13/A A |
