Verse 2
Am
C
Am
Yippee -ki -yay, yippee -ki -yay, -yay, oh
An old cowpoke went riding out
C
one dark and windy day
Am
Upon a ridge he rested
as he went along his way
When all at once
a mighty herd of red -eyed cows he saw
C
F
Plowing through the ragged skies
Dm
F
Am
and up a cloudy draw
C
Am
Yippee -yi -yay! Yippee -yi
Yippee -oh, yippee -aye -oh,
F
Am
the Ghostbird in the sky.
Their brains were still on fire,
C
and their hooves was made of steel.
Am
Their horns was black and shiny,
and their hot breath he could feel.
A bolt of fear went through him
as they thundered through the sky,
C
F
for he saw the riders coming high.
Am
And he heard their mournful cry,
C
Yippee -yi -yay,
Yippee -yi -yay,
Am
Yippee -yi -oh, Yippee -yi -oh.
F
Am
Oh, riders in the sky.
Their faces gone, their eyes were blurred,
C
and sure as all folks would sweat.
Am
They're riding hard to
catch that herd,
but they ain't caught them yet.
But they've got a right for whatever
on that range up in the sky
F
Dm
On horses, sword, and fire
F
Am
As they ride up near their grind
Yippee -yi -ay
C
Yippee -yi -ay
Am
Yippee -yi -ay
Yippee -yi -ay
F
Am
Ghost riders in the sky
As the riders looked on by him,
C
he heard one call his name.
Am
If you want to save your soul from hell
or riding on our reins,
F
Am
then cowboy, change your ways today
or with us you will ride.
F
But trying to catch the devil's herd
Dm
F
Am
across these endless skies.
C
Yippee -i -yay, yippee -i -yay,
Am
yippee -i -oh, yippee -i -oh.
F
D
F
C
Am
The Ghost Riders in the sky.
F

Dm
C
Ghost Riders in the sky.
