This is my own version of the chords which are played in a country & western style by
alternate picking of the bass strings. This makes the song sound like how Johnny Cash
might have done it. "Ghost Riders in the Sky" works well as a solo.
E B7
The Wild Boys are calling on their way back from the fire
E B7
In August moon surrender to a dust cloud on the rise
C A
Wild Boys fallen far from glory
E B7
Restless & so hungered on the razor's edge you trail
E B7
Because there's murder by the roadside in a sore, afraid new world
C D C A
They tried to tame us looks like they'll try again

Chorus;
E D B7
Wild Boys never loose it
E D B7
Wild Boys never chose this way
E D B7
Wild Boys never close your eyes
A C D
Wild Boys always shine
E B7
You've got sirens for a welcome. There's blood stains for your pain
E B7
And your telephones been ringing while you're dancing in the rain
C A
Wild Boys wonder where is glory
E B7
Where is all you angels now the figure heads have fell
E B7
And lovers war with arrows over secrets they could tell
C D C A
They tried to break us, looks like they'll try again
Repeat Chorus
