[Intro]
G6  G6  Cadd9  G/B  G6  G6  Dsus2/F#  G6
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9  G/B     G6
If  I  had  a  boat
     Cadd9    G/B      G6
I'd  go  out  on  the  ocean
    Cadd9  G/B     G6
And if  I  had  a  pony
    Em7            Dsus2/F#
I'd ride him on my boat
    Cadd9      G/B    G6
And we  could  all  together
Cadd9    G/B      G6
Go  out  on  the  ocean
       G6         Dsus2/F#   G6
I said me upon my pony on my boat
 
 
[Verse 1]
   G6                     Cadd9 G/B       G6
If I were Roy Rogers, I'd sure  enough be single
           G6                           Dsus2/F#
I couldn't bring myself to marrying old Dale
     G6                              Cadd9  G/B          G6
It'd just be me and Trigger, we'd go riding through them movies
          G6             Dsus2/F#        G6
Then we'd buy a boat and on the sea we'd sail
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9  G/B     G6
If  I  had  a  boat
     Cadd9    G/B      G6
I'd  go  out  on  the  ocean
    Cadd9  G/B     G6
And if  I  had  a  pony
    Em7            Dsus2/F#
I'd ride him on my boat
    Cadd9      G/B    G6
And we  could  all  together
Cadd9    G/B      G6
Go  out  on  the  ocean
       G6         Dsus2/F#   G6
I said me upon my pony on my boat
 
 
[Verse 2]
        G6                              Cadd9 G/B     G6
Now the mystery masked man was smart He got himself a Tonto
  G6                                Dsus2/F#
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
  G6                                 Cadd9  G/B    G6
But Tonto he was smarter     And one day said kemo sabe
     G6                         Dsus2/F#     G6
Kiss my ass I bought a boat I'm going out to sea
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9  G/B     G6
If  I  had  a  boat
     Cadd9    G/B      G6
I'd  go  out  on  the  ocean
    Cadd9  G/B     G6
And if  I  had  a  pony
    Em7            Dsus2/F#
I'd ride him on my boat
    Cadd9      G/B    G6
And we  could  all  together
Cadd9    G/B      G6
Go  out  on  the  ocean
       G6         Dsus2/F#   G6
I said me upon my pony on my boat

[Verse 3]
    G6                         Cadd9    G/B     G6
And if I were like lightning I wouldn't need no sneakers
         G6                           Dsus2/F#
Well I'd come and go wherever I would please
        G6                                  Cadd9     G/B         G6
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree and I'd scare 'em by the light pole
      G6                            Dsus2/F#        G6
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea
 
 
[Chorus]
Cadd9  G/B     G6
If  I  had  a  boat
     Cadd9    G/B      G6
I'd  go  out  on  the  ocean
    Cadd9  G/B     G6
And if  I  had  a  pony
    Em7            Dsus2/F#
I'd ride him on my boat
    Cadd9      G/B    G6
And we  could  all  together
Cadd9    G/B      G6
Go  out  on  the  ocean
       G6         Dsus2/F#   G6
I said me upon my pony on my boat
 
       G6         Dsus2/F#   G6
I said me upon my pony on my boat
