Frankie Laine - Ghost Riders In The Sky guitar chord

By: Frankie Laine

Song: Ghost riders in the sky(Capo 1st fret)

Yipie(Am) i-ay ! Yipie i(C)-oh The (F)Ghost riders in the(Am) sky

An (Am)old cowbok went ridin' out one (C)dark and windy day

(Am)upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way,

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

(F) plowin' through the ragged skies, and(Am) up a cloudy draw.

Yipie i(C)-oh ! Yipie(Am) i-ay ! The (F)Ghost herd in the(Am) sky

Their(Am) brands were still on fire, and their(C) hooves were made of steel

Their(Am) horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel.

A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky,

for he(F) saw the riders comin’ hard, and he(Am) heard their mournful cry.

Yipie i(C)-oh ! Yipie(Am) i-ay ! (F)Ghost riders in the(Am) sky.

Their(Am) faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred

their (C)shirts all soaked with sweat.

He’s (Am)ridin' hard to catch that herd, but he aint caught 'em yet',

'cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky,

on(F) horses snorting flame and fire, as they(Am) ride on, hear their cry.

Yipie i(C)-oh ! Yipie(Am) i-ay ! The (F)Ghost riders in the(Am) sky

The(Am) riders loped on by him, he(C) heard one call his name :

"If you (Am)want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range,

then cowboy change your ways today, or with us you will ride,

(F) tryin' to catch the devil’s herd,(Am) across these endless skies."

Yipie (C)i-oh !, Yipiei-oh!, Yipie(Am) i-ay !, Yipiei-ay !,

The g(F)host riders in the(Am) sky.

Yipie i(C)-oh ! Yipie(Am) i-ay !.Yipie i(C)-oh ! Yipie(Am) i-ay !

Yipie i(C)-oh ! Yipie(Am) i-ay !.Yipie i(C)-oh ! Yipie(Am) i (fade out)
