Pony

G C Love was a Mexican pony you and I would ride G Em7 C D From the desert in the dark cross the river on the other side C D G C Border guards they waved us through “Andele ninos” they cried G Em7 C Em7 Love was a Mexican pony you and I would ride G C Love was a porcelain angel in a church in Mexico G Em7 C D Dressed in silk painted tears we worshipped what we did not know C D G C Love was a porcelain angel, it was the moment we kissed G Em7 C D It was innocence, it was grace, it was the sound of the serpent's hiss C D G C Love was a Mexican pony that you and would ride G Em7 C D From the desert in the dark cross the river to the other side C D G C Love was a Sunday morning when our white flags flew in smoke G Em7 C D It was just before the call to mass, the cigarettes, the jokes C D G C Love was a Sunday morning when you and I would pray G Em7 C D Press our hands together the way we did when you went away
