dark and windy day Am Upon a ridge he rested as he went upon his way Am (F/A) (D/A) (F/A) When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw F (Dm) Am coming through the ragged sky, and up a cloudy draw Am C Their brands were still on fire and their hot breath he could feel Am Their horns were black and shiny and their hooves were made of steel Am (F/A) (D/A) (F/A) A bolt of fear went through him as they rumbled through the sky F (Dm) Am Then he saw the riders coming hard, and he heard their mournful cry [Chorus] C Am (G) Yippe-ai-ay, yippee-ai-oh F (Dm) Am Ghost riders in the sky Am C As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name Am If you want to save your soul from hell, a riding on this range Am (F/A) (D/A) (F/A) Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride F (Dm) Am Trying to catch the devil's herd, across these endless skies
