An old cowboy went ridin' out one dark and windy day,
Am C C
at bolder ridge he rested as he went along his way
Am Am
when all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
F F Am
driving through the ragged sk-----ies and up a cloudy draw.
Am C
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Am C
their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel
Am Am
a bolt of fear cut through him as they thundered through the sky
F F Am
For he saw the riders coming hard... and he heard their mournful cry
Am C Am
Yipie i oh Yipie i ay
F Am
Ghost riders in the sky.
Am C
As the riders loaped on by him he heard on call his name
Am C
if you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range
Am Am
cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will ride.
F F Am
driving with the devils herd.... a-cross this moonlit sky.
Am C
Their face was drawn there eyes were blurred their shirts all soaked
with sweat
Am C
He's ridin' hard to catch that herd but he 'aint caught 'em yet
Am
'cause they've all to ride forever on that range up in the sky
F F Am
oh the horses start to shi---re as they ride on through they cry
Am C Am
Yipie i oh Yipie i ay
F Am
Ghost riders in the sky.
Am C
As the riders loaped on by him he heard one call his name
Am C
if you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range
Am Am
cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will ride.
F F Am
driving with the devils herd.... across this moonlit sky.
Am C Am
Yipie i oh Yipie i ay
F Am
Ghost riders in the sky.
