Ghost Riders in the Sky Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Yipp[C]ie-I-ay, yippie-I-o
[Am]Ghost Ghost [F]Ghost riders in the sky
[Am]An old cowpoke went ridin'

[Verse 2]
out one
[C]dark and windy day (yippie-I-ay)
[Am]Upon a ridge he rested as
he went along his way
When all at once a mighty bunch
of red eyed cows he saw
[F]Plowin' through the ragged sky,
and up a cloudy [Am]draw

[Verse 3]
Yippie-I-ay, [C]yippie-I-o
Ghost [Am]Ghost [F]Ghost riders in the sky
[Am]Their brands were still

[Verse 4]
on fire and
their [C]hoofs were made of steel (yippie-I-ay)
Their horns [Am]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]He saw the riders commin' hard
and he heard [Am]their mournful cry

[Verse 5]
Yippie-I-ay, [C]yippie-I-o
[Am]Ghost Ghost [F]Ghost riders in [Am]the sky

[Verse 6]
Their faces gaunt,
their eyes were blurred
[C]Their shirts all soaked
with sweat (yippie-I-ay)
[Am]They're ridin' hard to catch that herd,
but they aint caught 'em yet'
'Cause you've gotta ride forever on that
range up in the sky
On [F]horses snorting fire,
as they ride on, [Am]hear their cry

[Verse 7]
Yippie-I-ay, [C]yippie-I-o
Ghost [Am]Ghost [F]Ghost riders in the [Am]sky

[Verse 8]
As the riders went on by him,
he [C]heard one call his [Am]name (yippie-I-ay)
If you wanna save your soul from
ever ridin' on our range
Then cowboy change your way today,
or with us you will ride
[F]Tryin' to catch the devil's herd,
across these endless [Am]skies

[Verse 9]
Yippie-I-ay, [C]yippie-I-o
Ghost [Am]Ghost [F]Ghost riders in the sky
[Am]Ghos[F]t riders in the sky[C]
