Ghost Riders / Rawhide
[Em] An old cowpoke went riding out one [G] dark and windy day
[Em] Upon a ridge he rested as he [G] went along his [B7] way
When [Em] all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
A'[C] plowin' through the ragged skies [Am/C]... and [Em] up a cloudy draw
[Em] Yi-pi-yi-[G] ay, Yi-pi-yi-[Em] o
[C] Ghost riders [Am/C] in the [Em] sky
[Em] Their brands were still on fire and their [G] hooves were made of steel
[Em] Their horns were black and shiny and their [G] hot breathe he could [B7] feel
A [Em] bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
For he [C] saw the riders comin' hard [Am/C] and he [Em] heard their mournful cry
[Em] Yi-pi-yi-[G] ay, Yi-pi-yi-[Em] o
[C] Ghost riders [Am/C] in the [Em] sky
[C] Ghost riders [Am/C] in the [Em] sky [Em] [Em] [Em]
[Em] Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ [Em7] though the streams are swollen
[G] Keep them doggies rollin’, rawhide
[Em] Rain and wind and weather [D] hell bent for [Em] leather
[D] Wishin’ my [C] gal was by my [B7] side
[Em] All the things I’m missin’ , good [D] victuals, love and [Em] kissin’
Are [D] waiting at the [Em] end of [D] my [Em] ride
Chorus:
[Em] Move ‘em on, head ‘em up [B7] Head ‘em up, move ‘em on
[Em] Move ‘em on, head ‘em up [B7] Rawhide
[Em] Count ‘em out, ride ‘em in [B7] Ride ‘em in, count ‘em out
[Em] Count ‘em out, ride ‘em [C] in, [B7] Raw [Em] hide
[Em] Keep movin’, movin’, movin’ , [Em7] Though they’re disapprovin’
[G] Keep them doggies movin’, rawhide
Don’t [Em] try to understand ‘em, just [D] rope, throw and [Em] brand ‘em
[D] Soon we’ll be [C] living high and [B7] wide
[Em] My heart’s calculatin’ , My [D] true love will be [Em] waitin’
Be [D] waitin’ at the [Em] end of [D] my [Em] ride
