Key: G# minor
Verse 1
The sight of one crossing my yard,
All copper zinc in broad daylight,
D
Em
Is etched on my eye.
D
Em
Their voices are raised on high.
No sooner do they corner a
Em
D
than their cover of Ghost Riders in the Sky
The version I myself favour to
kick off a road trip
is Frankie Lane's of 1963.
Others reckon Johnny Cash
E
Em
on Elvis Presley and Burl Ives.
Em
E
may derive not from a whole pack,
out knives covered in ice blood,
F#m
on which coy wolves will pare themselves
E
Em
down to the bone.
Em
E
more than a brouhaha
Em
E
over competing claims to
a garbage bin
that'll set off the neigh
Em
we hear it as both a paean of praise from
E
Em
a mission featuring a mosaic of St. Francis and the Wolf
and a muezzin's call to prayer
D
Em
from an unlikely mosque.
Frankie Lane did invite me once
E
Em
to co -write a song
but I stupidly declined because
I can't read music. you
How did you like the song?
