Biografía:
The Show Ponies is an American indie-grass/old time outfit from Los Angeles, CA.
The Show Ponies can best be described as an indie-folk band with Old Tyme Country tendencies. The band started as the combined musical creativity of Clayton Chaney and Andi Schrock. After recording their debut album in June 2011 with a full band, Chaney and Schrock brought on their producer, Jason Harris, as the Ponies' guitar player. Soon after Kevin Brown came on as the Ponies' drummer and Philip Glen joined after recording some fiddle tracks.

I was born in Texas raised in Arkansas
I was born in Texas left home I heard the call
I come to California for honey, milk, and gold
Sometimes they would warn ya to do what you've been told G
But if you don't or if you do you'll find yourself somewhere and you won't have a clue
G
I met you in Palestine
The heart break high school beauty queen
Em
You were 21 I was 18
G
Hey you had my heart when I heard you sing
C
Never thought I'd see you again
G
Well here I am just by coincidence
Chorus:
C G
Texas, Arkansas
D Em
California, here we are
C G
How ever long, how ever far
D G
California, here we are
G
We came here to be unique
but when we look around we see
Em
Different versions of ourselves
G
Sippin' tea with someone else
C G
This promise land was broken and the words that had been spoken can't be taken back so we'll stay here awhile
Chorus
G
I reckon I will go back home eventually but I don't know
Em
How long it takes to get things done
G
You had a plan now you've got none
C
You wonder what you do back there
and wonder what you're doing here
C7 G
Sometimes you leave just so you can't go back
Chorus
C G
The mocking birds are squawking words in minor 3rds about our major flaws
C
Dog wood and the pecan trees are losing leaves conceding one dream
C(3rd fret, not bar chord, open 'g'string)
Soo
Chorus (x2)
