G C G
It's the second September I have known you
Em
Four years or so ago, I rode a pony, called him "Truth"
D Em D G
We didn`t know the way so it took us till today to get here
[Chorus]
Em C
And all that time, I felt just fine
Em D
I held so many people in my suitcase heart
Em
I was glad to let the whole thing go
C
It was taken by the wind and snow
Em D
And I still didn't know that I was waiting
C D G C G
For a girl on a slow pony home
[Verse]
G C G
I can remember when I first saw you
Em
You said in my photograph I looked more far away
D Em D G
I laughed and smiled and didn't say "I am a bit afraid to be here."
[Chorus]
Em C
And all that time, I felt just fine
Em D
I held so many people in my suitcase heart
Em
I was glad to let the whole thing go
C
It was taken by the wind and snow
Em D
And I still didn't know that I was waiting
C D G C G
For a girl on a slow pony home
[Verse]
C Em
Setting free the anchor and looking past the shore
C A D
It's a sea of horses on ships with no sails, no motors, no oars
G C G
Now we're cleaning the windows between us two
Em
Funny, you do it once, and then again, and pretty soon
D Em D G
the fingerprints and dust... but I've begun to trust the view here.
[Chorus]
Em C
And all that time, I felt just fine
Em D
I held so many people in my suitcase heart
Em
I was glad to let the whole thing go
C
It was taken by the wind and snow
Em D
And I still didn't know that I was waiting
C D G C G
For a girl on a slow pony home
