[Am] An old cowboy went [C] riding out one dark and windy day.
[Am] Upon a ridge he rested [C] as he went along his way.
[Am] When all at once [A] a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he [F] saw.
A-blowin' through the ragged skies, [Dm] and up the [Am] cloudy draw.
[E] Yippee [G]-aye, [A] yippee-aye [E]-oh.
[A] [F] But the wolves heard [D] him, [A] the skylark.
Their brains were still on fire and their [C] hooves were made of steel.
Their [Am] horns were black and shiny [C] and their hot breath he could feel.
[Am] 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 them [Am] mournful cry.
