(Ghost) Riders In The Sky Teclado

	    
An old cowpoke went riding out one dark and windy day.  
  Em  
Upon a ridge he rested as he went upon his way,  
     Em            (C/E)         (A/E)            (C/E)  
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw  
C                         (Am)     Em  
plowing through the ragged sky and up a cloudy draw. 

First refrain (optional): 
Yippie-i-ay, yippie-i-o! 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!  
  Em               (C/E)               (A/E)               (C/E)    
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky,  
        C                          (Am)        Em  
For he saw the riders coming hard     and he heard their mournful cry:  
  
 
         G             Em    (D)  
Yippe-i-ay, yippee-i-o!  
C           (Am)    Em  
Ghost riders in the sky.  
  
           Em                                                               G 
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat, 
              Em 
They're riding hard to catch that herd, but they ain't caught 'em yet. 
              Em         C/E                       A/E                C/E 
They've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky 
            C                   Am                  Em 
With horses snorting fire!  As they ride on, hear them cry: 

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