Capo 2
Wh[C]en I was a[G] very young man
I was a[C] c[G]owboy, the best in the land
But then sh[G]e [G7C]settle[A7]d me down with a touch of her hand
Now I'm [G]beg[D]ging you mister
Tell [C]me[G] if you can
Chorus:
Which [C]way does th[G]at old pony run
Which[C] way [G]does that old pony run
And ho[G]w m[G7]uch is that saddle
And a [C]straig[A7]ht shooting gun
Whic[G]h wa[D]y does[G] that old pony run
Now [C]a young girl, she don't know whe[G]n she's lying
But a[C] woman, grea[G]t God, she knows how its done
So ma[G]ma be[G7]fore I g[C]o,[A7] there's just one thing on my mind
Whi[G]ch wa[D]y doe[C]s that old[G] pony run
Chorus:
Whi[C]ch way does th[G]at old pony run
Whi[C]ch way doe[G]s that old pony run
And h[G]ow mu[G7]ch is that saddle
And a[C] straig[A7]ht shooting gun
Whi[G]ch wa[D]y d[C]oe[G]s that old pony run
So th[C]is good life you know I must [G]leave
Yo[C]ur new [G]car and your color TV
But what[G]'s [G7]rich[C]es[A7] to you, just ain't riches to me
And if you'r[G]e s[D]taying out here
Then I[C]'m h[G]eaded back east
Chorus:
Which [C]way does th[G]at old pony run
Whi[C]ch way d[G]oes that old pony run
And ho[G]w m[G7]uch is that saddle
And a [C]strai[A7]ght shooting gun
Whi[G]ch wa[D]y does[C] that[G] old pony run
Wh[C]en I was a[G] very young man
