An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day

A minorAm            C majorC
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw

Came rushing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw

Yippie yi yaaaaay

Yippie yi Ohhhhh

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel

A minorAm                 C majorC
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel

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

He's riding hard to catch that herd, but he ain't caught 'em yet
