Ghost riders In the sky

Jones Stan

  Em                                  G
1.An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day;
    Em                         G               B7
  Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way,
        Em
  When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw,
     C                   Am              Em
  A-plowin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw.


Refrain1:
           G               Em   C        Am     Em
Yip-pie-ya-aye, yip-pie-yi-o, ghost herd in the sky.

        Em                                   G
2.Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel,
        Em                                   G                 B7
  Their horns was black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel;
     Em
  A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky,
         C              Am                 Em
  For he saw the riders comin' hard and he heard their mournful cry.

Refrain2:
           G               Em   C          Am     Em
Yip-pie-ya-aye, yip-pie-yi-o, ghost riders in the sky.

  Em                                                G
3.Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred,Their shirts all soaked with sweat;
          Em                                  G                        B7
  They're ridin' hard to catch that herd, but they ain't caught 'em yet;
          Em
  They've got to ride forever in that range up in the sky,
      C               Am            Em
  On horses snortin´ fire, as they ride on, hear their cry.


Repeat Refrain2:
           G               Em   C          Am     Em
Yip-pie-ya-aye, yip-pie-yi-o, ghost riders in the sky.

         Em                         G
4.As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name;
          Em                                   G            B7
  "If you want to save your soul from hell a' ridin' on our range,
  Em
  Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride,
    C                   Am            Em
  A-tryin' to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies."


Repeat Refrain2:
           G               Em   C          Am     Em
Yip-pie-ya-aye, yip-pie-yi-o, ghost riders in the sky.

 C           Am      G
