Am CAn old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day

Am C Am Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

AmWhen all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw

F AmA - ploughing through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw

C Am F AmYippy - ya - ay Yippy - ya - oh Ghost riders in the sky

Am Their faces gaunt their eyes were blurred

CTheir shirt all soaked with sweat

Am C AmThey’re riding hard to catch the herd but they ain’t caught them yet

Am Cause they got to ride forever on that range up in the sky

F AmOn horses snortin’ fire, as they ride on hear their cry


Am CAs the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name

Am C AmIf you want to save your soul from hell a-riding on our range

AmThen cowby change your ways today or with us you will ride

F AmA-trying to catch the devil’s herd, across the endless skies
