Riders In The Sky

Em                                 G
An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day

Upon a ridge he rested as he went upon his way
   C/E A/E C/E

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

coming through the ragged sky, and up a cloudy draw

                 D

Yippe-ai-ay, yippee-ai-oh
  Am
C  Em
Ghost herd in the sky

     Em                                  G
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
      Em
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel
   C/E A/E

A bolt of fear went through him as they rumbled through the

C   Em
Then he saw the riders coming hard,     and he heard their mournful cry

        Em                                    G
Their faces gaunt their eyes were blurred their shirts all soaked with sweet

  Am

as horses snorting fire, as they ride on hear their crys

       Em                         G
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
       Em
If you want to save your soul from hell, a riding on our range
   C/E A/E C/E
Em
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
  Am
C  Em
Trying to catch the devil's herd,    across these endless skies
