Tune 435 - Ghost Riders in the Sky

Ghost Riders in the Sky is a cowboy-styled country/western song written in 1948 by American songwriter Stan Jones. A bit of a challenge on a melodeon due to the number of pull notes :) X:435 T:Ghost Riders in the Sky M:C| L:1/4 K:Am E|AA AB|cc cA|GG GE|G3 E| AA AB|cc cd|ee ec|e3 e| ea aa|ae ee|ee ec|A3 A| FF FF|cc c2-|c2 zc|cA AG|A4|| e>e eg-|g3 z|a>a aa|e3 z| F2 FF|c3 c|cA3-|A2 z||
