Ghost Riders In the Sky

Em                                  G  
An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day;  
 
  Em                         G               B7  
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way,  
 
      Em  
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw,  
 
   C                   Am              Em  
A-plowin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw.  
           G               Em   C          Am     Em  
Yip-pie-ya-aye, yip-pie-yi-o, ghost riders in the sky.  
      Em                                   G  
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel,  
 
      Em                                   G                 B7  
Their horns wuz black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel;  
 
   Em  
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky,  
 
       C              Am                 Em  
For he saw the riders comin' hard and he heard their mournful cry.  
 
 
Repeat Refrain:  
 
 
Em  
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred,  
 
       G  
Their shirts all soaked with sweat;  
           
        Em                                  G                        B7  
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd, but they ain't caught 'em yet;  
 
        Em  
They've got to ride forever in that range up in the sky,  
 
    C               Am            Em  
On horses snortin' fire, as they ride on, hear their cry.  
 
 
Repeat Refrain:  
 
       Em                         G  
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name;  
 
        Em                                   G            B7  
"If you want to save your soul from hell a' ridin' on our range,  
 
      Em  
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride,  
 
  C                   Am            Em  
A-tryin' to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies."  
 
 
Repeat Refrain:  
 
 
Coda:  
 
C           Am      G
