And he a C dores the G girl next Am door
'Cause he's C dying G to get Am at her

F Plowing through the ragged skies and Am up a cloudy draw
Yippie i-C oh Yippie i-Am ay F ghost riders in the Am sky
Am Their brands were still on fire and their C hooves were made of steel
Their Am horns were black and shiny and their C hot breath he could E7 feel
A Am bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
F For he saw the riders coming hard and he Am heard their mournful cry
Yippie i-C oh Yippie i-Am ay F ghost riders in the Am sky
Am Their faces gaunt their eyes were blurred and their C shirts all soaked with sweat
He’s Am riding hard to catch that herd but C he ain't caught 'em E7 yet
Cause Am they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
On F horses snorting fire as they Am ride on hear their cry
Yippie i-C oh Yippie i-Am ay F ghost riders in the Am sky

C As I was a goin' over the Am far famed Kerry mountains
I F met with Captain Farrell and his C money he was counting
I C first produced my pistol and I Am then produced my rapier
Said F "Stand and deliver" for you C are my bold deceiver
Chorus
With me G ring dum-a doo dum-a da
C Whack for the daddy-o. F whack for the daddy-o
There's C whiskey G7 in the C jar.
I C counted out his money and it Am made a pretty penny
I F put it in me pocket and I C brought it home to Jenny
She C said and she swore that she Am never would deceive me
But the F devil take the women for they C never can be easy
Chorus
I C went into my chamber, all Am for to take a slumber
I F dreamt of gold and jewels and for C sure it was no wonder
But C Jenny drew me charges and she Am filled them up with water
Then F sent for Captain Farrell to be C ready for the slaughter.
Chorus
It was C early in the morning, just be Am fore I rose to travel
The F guards were all around me and C likewise Captain Farrell
I C first produced me pistol for she Am stole away me rapier
But I F couldn't shoot the water, so a C prisoner I was taken.
Chorus
If C anyone can aid me, it's my Am brother in the army,
If F I can find his station in C Cork or in Killarney.
And C if he'll come and save me, we'll go Am roving near Kilkenny,
and I F swear he'll treat me better than me C darling sportling Jenny.
Chorus
Now C some men take delight in the Am drinking and the roving,
But F others take delight in the C gambling and the smoking.
But C I take delight in the Am juice of the barley,
and F courting pretty Jenny in the C morning bright and early.
