   A#m                             C#              A#m
An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day,
  A#m                         C#              A#m
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way,
    A#m                             F#               A#m
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw,
A#m                  F#              F#           A#m
Plowinʼ through the agged sky, and up a cloudy draw,

      A#m
Their brands were still on fire
          C#                   A#m
and their hooves were made of steel,
     A#m
Their horns were black and shiny
         C#                    A#m
and their hot breath he could feel,
  A#m
А bolt of fear went through him
       F#                     A#m
as they thundered through the sky,
       A#m             F#
For he saw the riders coming hard,
                            A#m
and he heard their mournful cry.

Chorus:
        C#             A#m
Yippe-ai-oh, yippee-ai-ay, (Coyote Yip)
F#                   A#m
Ghost riders in the sky,

Instrumental: A#m C# A#m x2
              A#m F# A#m
              A#m F# F# A#m

      A#m
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred,
       C#                     A#m
their shirts all soaked with sweat,
     A#m                                C#                    A#m
Heʼs ridinʼ hard to catch that herd but he ainʼt caught them yet,
             A#m                           F#               A#m
Cause theyʼve got to ride forever on that range up in the sky,
    A#m             F#             F#                  A#m
All horses snortinʼ fire, as they ride on, hear them cry.

      A#m                         C#                  A#m
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name,
      A#m                                  C#              A#m
If you want to save your soul from hell, a ridinʼ on our range,
    A#m                                F#
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride,
A#m                  F#              F#                   A#m
Trying to catch the devilʼs herd, across these endless skies.

Chorus:
       C#              A#m
Yippe-ai-oh, yippee-ai-ay, (Coyote Yip)
F#                  A#m
Ghost riders in the sky,
F#                   A#m
Ghost riders in the sky,
F#                  A#m
Ghost riders in the sky.
