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

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

Chorus:
        B             G#m
Yippe-ai-oh, yippee-ai-ay, (Coyote Yip)
E                   G#m
Ghost riders in the sky,

Instrumental: G#m B G#m x2
              G#m E G#m
              G#m E E G#m

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

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

Chorus:
       B              G#m
Yippe-ai-oh, yippee-ai-ay, (Coyote Yip)
E                  G#m
Ghost riders in the sky,
E                   G#m
Ghost riders in the sky,
E                  G#m
Ghost riders in the sky.
