Watercolour Ponies
Wayne Watson

*The Am9 and Fmmaj7/E should be played as follows to emulate Wayne's concert version of 
this song:

Am9E:0 (x02413@1)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 (x02413@1)          FmMaj7/E
There are watercolour ponies
        Am9 (x02413@1)       Gm (355333@1)COn (x32010@1)my refrigerator door
       F (133211@1)       Em (022000@1)       Bm7 (x20202@1)         E7 (020130@1)    Am9 (x02413@1)Fmmaj7/E
In the shape of something I don't really recognize
             Am9 (x02413@1)             Fmmaj7/E
Brushed with careful little fingers
        Am9 (x02413@1)           Gm (355333@1)CAnd (x32010@1)put proudly on display

A reminder to us all of how time flies
         Am9 (x02413@1)                Fmmaj7/E
Seems an endless mound of laundry
      Am9 (x02413@1)                Gm (355333@1)CAnd (x32010@1)a stairway laced with toys
        F (133211@1)       Em (022000@1)  Bm7 (x20202@1) E7 (020130@1)     Am9 (x02413@1)Fmmaj7/E
Gives a blow by blow reminder of the war
        Am9 (x02413@1)                  Fmmaj7/E
That we fight for their well-being
          Am9 (x02413@1)          Gm (355333@1)  CFor (x32010@1)their greater understanding
      F (133211@1)    Em (022000@1) Bm7 (x20202@1)       E7 (020130@1)  ATo (x02220@1)impart a holy reverence for the Lord

       A (x02220@1)                        EOh (022100@1)the pleasure of watchin' the children growin'
   F#m (244222@1)                C#mIs (x13321@4)mixed with a bitter cup
