[A]
All right, [E] you cowboys.
[G]
[A] [Am]
That old cowboy went [A] riding out one [C] dark and windy day.
[Am] Out on the ridge he rested as he went along his way.
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
[F]
Low into the ragged sky [Dm]
and up a [A] cloudy jaw.
Their brams 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] and he heard their [Am] mournful cry.
Yippee-yi [C]-oh, oh [Am] yippee-yi-ay.
[F] Ghost riders in [Am] the [E] sky.
Wah-woo!
[Am] [G]
[C] [Am]
[A] [E]
[Am] [F] [C]
[D] [Am]
Their faces gomped, their eyes were blurred, [C] their shirts all soaked and sweat.
[Am] He's riding 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] On horses snorting fire [Dm] as they ride on [Am] hear their cry.
As the riders loped on by him [C] he heard one call his name.
[Am] If you want to save your soul from hell riding on our range.
Cowboys change your ways today are with us you [A] will [F] ride.
Trying to catch the devil's herd [Dm]
across these [Am] endless skies.
Yippee [C]-yi-oh, oh yippee [Am]-yi-ay.
[F] Ghost riders in [Am] the sky.
[F] Ghost riders in [Am] the sky.
[F] Ghost riders in [A] the sky.

Ladies and gentlemen please make welcome June Carter-Katz.
[B] Thank you.
[N]
Thank you very much.
June and I have just recorded a new song that is really one of our favorites that we've ever done.
I mean maybe our favorite.
It is so nice.
