Verse 1: 

Am7 
   He's a one-trick pony 
   One trick is all that horse can do 
          D7 
   He does one trick only 
                                        Am7 
   It's the principal source of his revenue 

                 G              D/F# 
   And when he steps into the spotlight 
           F                    Bm7/5- 
   You can feel the heat of his heart 
               Am7 
   Come rising through 


Verse 2: 

   See how he dances 
   See how he loops from side to side 
   See how he prances 
   The way his hooves just seem to glide 

   He's just a one-trick pony  
   that's all he is, but he turns that 
   trick with pride 


Chorus: 

              C 
   He makes it look so easy 
C9 
   He looks so clean 
 F                        F#dim 
   He moves like God's immaculate machine 
              C/G 
   He makes me think about 

             E7/G# 
   All these extra moves I make 
                 Am 
   And all this herky-jerky motion 
            C/Bb 
   And the bag of tricks it takes 
                    F               Bb9 
   To get me through my working day, 
              Am7 
   one-trick pony 


Solo 


Verse 3: 

   He's a one-trick pony 
   He either fails or he succeeds 
   He gives his testimony 
   Then he relaxes in the weeds 

   He's got one trick to last a lifetime 
   But that's all 
   a pony needs 


Solo 2 


Chorus: 

   He looks so easy 
   He looks so clean 
   He moves like God's immaculate machine 
   He makes me  think about 

   All these extra moves I make 
   And all this herky-jerky motion 
   And the bag of tricks it takes 
   To get me through my working day, 
   one-trick pony 


End:
