/ Am / / C
An / old cowboy went / riding out one / dark and windy / day,
/ Am / C
Up — / on a ridge he / rested as he / went along his / way,

When / all at once a / mighty herd of / red—eyed cows he / saw,
/ F / Am
Plowin' through the / ragged sky, / / and / up a cloudy / draw,
Chorus:
/ C / / / Am
Yippe—ai — / ay, / / yippee—a o— / oh, / / (Coyote Yip)
/ F / / / Am / /
Ghost / riders / in / the / sky, / /
/ Am / / C
Their / brands were still on / fire and their / hooves were made of /steel,
/ Am / / C
Their / horns were black and / shiny and their / hot breath he could /feel,
/ Am
A / bolt of fear went / through him as they / thundered through the / sky,
/ F / / Am
For he / saw the riders / coming hard, / / and he / heard their mournful /cry.
Chorus:
/ C / / / Am

Their / faces gaunt, their / eyes were blurred, their / shirts all soaked with / sweat,

He's / ridin' hard to / catch that herd but / he ain't caught them / yet,

Cause they've / got to ride for — / ever on that / range up in the / sky,
/ Gb / Bbm
All / horses snortin' / fire, / / as they / ride on, hear them / cry.
