  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

         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."
