in your own improvisation
INTRO: Am
VERSE 1:
D
The night was cold
Am
And the wind was howling
D
I was awaken by the sound
Am
Of hoof beats pounding.
D
Outside the window, on the ground
Am
My old hound dog was growling
CHORUS:
F G Am
Grey Riders flew across my lawn
F G E
I looked again and they all were gone.
Am
That voice was calling
F
And it cut through the night
E
Come on boys, let her go.

VERSE 2:
Up on a hill
They rode in one long column
They were freezing with the chills
Of the new day dawning.
Their hair long and grey
They heard just one voice calling
CHORUS:
Grey Riders on the morning sky,
The sun made diamonds of their road-weary eyes.
That voice is calling
And it cut through the night
Come on boys, let her go.

CHORUS:
Grey Riders flew across my lawn
I looked again and they all were gone.
That voice was calling
And it cut through the night
Come on boys, let her go.

And the wind was howling
I was awaken by the sound
Of hoof beats pounding.
Outside the window, on the ground
Our hound dog was growling
CHORUS:

I looked again and they all were gone.
That voice was calling
And it cut through the night
Come on boys, let her go.
