[Em]
[C#] An old cowfolk went riding [G] out one dark and windy day
Upon [Em] a ridge he rested as he rode along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
[C] Flowing through the ragged skies, [Am] and up a [Em] cloudy draw
[C#] Yippee [G]-aye-ay, yippee [Em]-aye-oh
[C] [Am] Ghost herd in [Em] the sky
[C#] Their [Em] horns were black and shiny [G] and their hooves were made of steel
[Em] Their brands were still on fire and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear shot through him as they thundered through the sky
[C] For he saw the riders coming high
[Am] And he heard their [Em] mournful cries

Cause they've got to [B] ride forever [G] on that range up [C#] in the sky
