Ghost Rider In The Sky

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