Show Pony

[B] [C#m] [G#m] [F#]

 

[B]Show pony, make it burn

[C#m]Smile as the knife is turned

[G#m]Show pony making a return

[F#]I guess he's right that you live-

 

I'll be[E]gin at the beginning, you met in New York City

He was [B]sitting like a prince on the stairs of his old building

And he [G#m]kissed you, you were finished, two months in a minute

[F#m]Married at a desk in your sundress with a witness

Had a [E]honeymoon in Texas, went to Little Venice

[B]Told him with your eyes, now you're crying in the clinic

And we [G#m]pile into the plymouth, haircuts in the kitchen

He [F#m]always fell asleep just before the movie finished

 

But you [E]don't, baby, you're alone

Echoes in your [B]head, pressed into the floor

Two-dimensio[G#m]nal, when's it gonna end?

Maybe when you're [F#]dead?

Maybe you're a [F#]fool, but he loved you

 

And he [B]loved you in a T-shirt, mmh

All the [C#m]memories inside your curves

Now you're [E]coming back to show us that, girl

So roll those [F#]credits 'cause the sequel's gonna hurt, mmh

 

[B]Show pony, make it burn

[C#m]Smile as the knife is turned

[G#m]Show pony making a return

[F#]As we make our way through the universe

 

[B]Show pony making it burn

[C#m]That's how revenge is served

[G#m]Make it so cold that it hurts

[F#]I guess he's right that you live and learn

 

[B] [C#m] [G#m] [F#]

 

It's [E]how the story goes, ramen on your own

[B]Waiting by the phone, lipstick on the coat

[G#m]Waiting by the door, you live in his clothes

[F#]You would make a joke that you had none of your own

[E]All that shit I learned from you

[D#m]Kindness spilled like milk and juice

[F#]So blindsided by the truth

[G#m]In some way, I was sure you knew

 

But you [E]don't, baby, you're alone

Echoes in your [B]head, pressed into the floor

Two-dimensio[G#m]nal, when's it gonna end?

Maybe when you're [F#]dead?

Maybe you're a [F#]fool, but he loved you

 

And he [B]loved you in a T-shirt, mmh

All the [C#m]memories inside your curves

Now you're [E]coming back to show us that, girl

So roll those [F#]credits 'cause the sequel's gonna hurt, mmh

 

[B]Show pony, make it burn

[C#m]Smile as the knife is turned

[G#m]Show pony making a return

[F#]As we make our way through the universe

 

[B]All those nights he left you and me

There was [C#m]nothing left of you, but he squeezed

[G#m]All those times he did what he pleased

[F#]Boy, those scars must really run deep

And [B]all that hurt comes out in one scream

And it [C#m]pierced him like the paper receipt

That you [G#m]got that time you went for food

[F#]That first night that he saw you

 

[B]Show pony, make it burn

[C#m]Smile as the knife is turned

[G#m]Show pony making a return

[F#]As we make our way through the universe

 

[B]Show pony making it burn

[C#m]That's how revenge is served

[G#m]Make it so cold that it hurts

[F#]I guess he's right that you live and learn
