An old cowpoke went [E] riding out one dark and windy _ day _
[C#m] Upon a ridge he rested [E] as he went along his _ _ way
_ [C#m] When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he [A] saw
A-plowin' through the ragged skies _
[F#m] And up a [C#m] cloudy _ _ _ drawl
[E] In the eye _ _ _ _ of the [C#m] eye of the moon
_ [A] The _ ghost [F#m] herd in [C#m] the sky _ _ _
Their brands were still on fire and [E] their hooves were made of steel _
Their [C#m] horns were black and shiny [E] and their hot breath he could _ feel _
_ [C#m] A bowl of fear went through him as they thundered through the [A] sky
For he saw the riders comin' _ hard
[F#m] _
And he heard their [C#m] mournful _ _ _
[G#] _ cry
[E] Yippee-ki-yay, _ _ _ _ _
yippee-ki [C#m]-yay, _ yippee _ _ [A]-ki-yay
Ghost riders [F#m] _ _ in [C#m] the sky _ _ _ _
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were [E] blurred and shirts all soaked with sweat
They're [C#m] ridin' hard to catch that [E] herd but they ain't caught him yet
[C#m] Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
[A] On horses snortin' fire [F#m] as they ride on hear [C#m] their _ cry
_ _ Yippee-ki-yay, [E] _
_ _ _ _ yippee [C#m]-ki-yay
_ Ghost _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[F#m] riders in _ [C#m] the _ sky
As _ _ _ the riders looked on by him [E] he heard one call his name _
If [C#m] you want to save your soul from [E] hell a-ridin' on a range _ _
[C#m] Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
A [A]-tryin' to catch the devil's herd _ _
[F#m] Across these [C#m] endless _ _ _ skies
_ [E] Yippee-ki-yay, _ yippee-ki _ _ [C#m]
