[Verse]
    C        G        F
Whenever the moon and stars are circling
    C
Whenever the wind is high
Am        D                 E7       Am
All night long, through the dark and wet
  G        F      E
A man goes riding by
G7                         C          Am
Late in the night when the fire's all out
F           C          G       C      G7  C  G7
Why does he gallop and gallop about?

[Verse]
    C        G         F
Whenever the trees are crying aloud
    C
And ships are tossed at sea
Am          D        E7      Am
Ride on the highway, low and loud
G         F           E
By at the gallop goes he
G7                    C      Am
By at the gallop goes he and then
F           C           G       C
By he comes back at the gallop again
