Em5                               G5
An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day
Em5
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
 C5                    G5                           Em5
A|-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw

Em5                        G5
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Em5
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel

A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
C5                    G5                                      Em5
For he saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry

          G5

Em5                                         G5
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat
Em5
He's riding hard to catch that herd, but he ain't caught 'em yet

'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
C5                 G5                              Em5
On horses snorting fire As they ride on hear their cry

Em5
As the riders loped on by him he heard one call his name
Em5
If you want to save your soul from Hell a-riding on our range

Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
C5                  G5                                 Em5
Trying to catch the Devil's herd, across these endless skies

          G5

Yippie yi Ohhhhh
