Am                            C
An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day

Am                        C
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

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

F                                Dm                 Am
A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw

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

Am                                  C
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel

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

F                                     Dm                      Am
For he saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry

Am        C
Yippie yi Ohhhhh

C         Am
Yippie yi yaaaaay

F                   Am

Am                                          C
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat

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

Am
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky

F
On horses snorting fire

Dm                         Am
As they ride on hear their cry

Am                               C
As the riders loped on by him he heard one call his name

Am                                      C
If you want to save your soul from Hell a-riding on our range

Am
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride

F                                 Dm                    Am
Trying to catch the Devil's herd, across these endless skies

Am        C
Yippie yi Ohhhhh

C         Am
Yippie yi Yaaaaay

F                   Am

F                   Am
