Verse 1
E 
Am 
An old cowboy went riding out
C 
one dark and windy day
Am 
Up on a ridge he rested
as he went along his way
When all at once
a mighty herd of red -eyed cows he saw
F 
Flowin' through the ragged skies
Dm 
Am 
and up  the cloudy draw
Their brands were still on fire
C 
and their hooves were made of steel
Am 
Their horns were black and shiny
and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him
as they thundered through the sky
F 
For he saw the riders coming hard,
Dm 
Am 
and he heard their mournful cry
C 
Am 
Yippee -aye -oh, yippee -aye -ay
F 
Am 
G 
Ghost riders in the sky
C 
Am 
F 
Dm 
Am 
Their faces gaunt,
their eyes are blurred,
C 
Their shirts all soaked with sweat.
Am 
He's ridin' hard to catch that herd,
But he ain't caught him yet.
Cause they've got to ride forever
On that range up in the sky.
F 
All the horses snortin' fire
Dm 
Am 
As they ride on, hear their cry
As a rider floatin' on by him
C 
He heard one call his name
Am 
If you wan na save your soul from hell
Ridin' on our range
Then cowboy, change your ways
If they are with us, you will ride
F 
Tryin' to catch the devil's herd
Dm 
Am 
Across these endless skies
C 
Yippee -aye -oh
Am 
Yippee -aye -ay -ay -ay
F 
Am 
Ghost riders in the sky
F 
Am 
Ghost Riders in the sky
F 
Am 
Ghost Riders in the sky
