Am /E/G (x12) | Em Dm | Am /E/G (x4)

Am                  Em          Dm                    Am     /E/G
From the dusty mesa her looming shadow grows
Am               Em                    Dm            Am   /E/G Am
Hidden in the branches of the poison creosote
       C                                     G
She twines her spine up slowly towards the boiling sun
        Dm                                     F                       Am /E/G Am (x3)
And when I touched her skin my fingers ran with blood

          C             Am           C             Am
Hidey Hi, Hidey Ho, Hidey Hi, Hidey Ho
F                          Am /E/G Am
Ghost riders in the sky
F                 E       Am /E /G Am (x3)
Ghost riders in the sky . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Olay!

Am /E /G (x8) | Em Dm | Am /E/G (x4)

Am                  Em               Dm               Am     /E/G
In the hushing dusk, under a swollen silver moon
Am                  Em                    Dm                     Am     /E/G
I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom
   C                                              G
A strange hunger haunted me, the looming shadows danced
Dm                                             F                      F G Am /E/G Am (x3)
I fell down to the thorny brush and felt a trembling hand

          C             Am           C             Am
Hidey Hi, Hidey Ho, Hidey Hi, Hidey Ho
F                          Am
Ghost riders in the sky
F                 E       Am /E /G Am (x3)
Ghost riders in the sky

Am /E /G (x8) | Em Dm | Am /E/G (x4)

Am                       Em                                Dm              Am     /E/G
When the last light warms the rocks and the rattlesnakes unfold
Am                       Em         Dm                  Am   /E/G Am
Mountain cats will come to drag away your bones
       C                               G
And rise with me forever across the silent sand
             Dm                                         F                G    Am /E/G Am (x3)
And the stars will be your eyes and the wind will be my hands

          C             Am           C             Am
Hidey Hi, Hidey Ho, Hidey Hi, Hidey Ho
F                          Am
Ghost riders in the sky
F                       E                 Am
Ghost . . . riders in . . . . . the sky
