Let That Pony Run(Chords)

	        Intro: C F C F 
 
C                     F 
Mary was married with children 
        C                 F 
Had the perfect suburban life 
         C              G             Am 
Till her husband came clean with the help of Jim Beam 
                      F              G 
And confessed all his sins in one night 
     C                             F 
Said he'd fallen in love with a barmaid 
          C                          F 
Said she made him free reckless and young 
     C           G          Am 
When he was through, what else could she do 
         F         G    C 
She just let that pony run 

     F      G           C 
'Cause you do what you gotta do 
    F        G          C 
And you know what you know 
    F        G         C        Am 
You hang on till you can't hang on 
          F            G 
Then you learn to let go 
     F        G      C 
And you get what you need sometimes 
          G             Am C F 
When it's all said and done 
      G         C      Am 
You do what you gotta do 
         F         G     C F C F 
Then you let that pony run
 
 
 
C                        F 
Mary moved to West Virginia 
C                    F 
After the shock wore off 
    C        G             Am 
She got a divorce and a chestnut horse 
        F                   G 
And a barn with an old hayloft 
C                                  F 
Sometimes she rides down by the river 
C                                    F 
Says it makes her feel reckless and young 
C                    G                Am 
She just closes her eyes and she holds on tight 
        F           G   C 
And she lets that pony run 
 
 
~Chorus~ 
  
     F     G             C 
'Cause you do what you gotta do 
  F         G          C 
And you know what you know 
    F        G          C       Am 
You hang on till you can't hang on 
         F            G 
Then you learn to let go 
    F       G        C 
And you get what you need sometimes 
         G             Am  C F 
When it's all said and done 
      G         C      Am 
You do what you gotta do 
         F          G   C 
Then you let that pony run 
F          G    C.....F  C F C 
Let that pony run
