Ghost Riders In The Sky ? Vic Damone
(A copy of this song is available from "FROSTWIRE")

Intro:     Bb           Gm7    Dm

   Dm                Dm7            F               C                         
An old cow-poke went riding out one dark and lonely day,
 Dm             Dm7          F              F7                          
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way,
     Dm            F              C                Dm
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw,
  Bb                  Dm7              Gm   Gm7    Dm
A plowin? through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw.
         C                Dm      Bb           Gm7    Dm
Yippie I Aaay,   Yippie I Oooh,   Ghost Riders in the Sky?y.

      Dm                   Dm7            F                   C                           
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel,
      Dm                   Dm7             F                   F7
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel,
  Dm                F                   C                     Dm
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky,
   Bb             Dm7                 Gm          Gm7      Dm
He saw the riders coming hard? and he heard their mournful cry.
         C                Dm      Bb           Gm7    Dm
Yippie I Aaay,   Yippie I Oooh,   Ghost Riders in the Sky?y.

Dm              Dm7        F                  C
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name,
       Dm                Dm7               F             F7
If you want to save your soul from hell, a riding on our range,
     Dm                 F              C                Dm
Then cowboy change your ways today, or with us you will ride,
Bb                  Dm7            Gm          Gm7     Dm
Tryin? to catch the devil?s herd, across these endless skies.
         C                Dm      Bb           Gm7    Dm
Yippie I Aaay,   Yippie I Oooh,   Ghost Riders in the Sky?y.

    Dm                 Dm7                      F                       C
The faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat,
        Dm             Dm7                 F                    F7                                   
They?re ridin? hard to catch that herd but they ?ain caught ?em yet,
       Dm                     F            C               Dm
?Cause they?ve got to ride forever on that range up in the sky,
   Bb              Dm7          Gm      Gm7       Dm
On horses snorting fire as they ride on hear them cry.
         C                Dm      Bb           Gm7    Dm
