Chord/Tab song: The Pits

(CHORUS)
It's the [G]24th of May and we [D]likes to get away
Up in the woods or going out the [A]bay
There's [D]all kinds of places but the [G]place we likes to [D]get
Is up on the [Bm]highway in the [D]grav-[A]el [D]pits

[Bm] [D] [A] [D]

We [D]loves to go out in the [G]good old gravel [D]pits
We loves to go [Bm]out there when [D]life gets [A]smelly
We can [D]spray paint our names on the [G]face of the [D]cliff
Go up to the [Bm]Irving for a [D]coke [A]and [D]chips

Hi[D]tches up the camper and [G]out of town we [D]go
Out on the [Bm]highway with [D]everything in [A]tow
The [D]dog is in the back seat and [G]Grandfather's [D]drunk
Youngsters in the [Bm]trailer and the [D]wife is [A]in the [D]trunk

(CHORUS)
It's the [G]24th of May and we [D]likes to get away

[Bm] [D] [A] [D]

[D]John is coming over and [G]Sue and Henry [D]too
We polish off a [Bm]bottle and a [D]pot of moose [A]stew
We [D]tell a few stories, an [G]awful lot of l[D]ies
Green boughs [Bm]on the fire to [D]keep [A]away the [D]flies

[D]The youngsters gets excited then they [G]starts to bounce and [D]jump up
When we piles in the [Bm]car and goes [D]up to the [A]dump
[D]It's cheaper than the movies so we [G]all sits and [D]stares
Up by the [Bm]garbage b'y you're [D]lookin [A]at the [D]bears

[Bm] [D] [A] [D]

[D]We flies a Newfie flag on an [G]old spruce [D]pole
And drowns a few [Bm]worms in a [D]tractor mud [A]hole
[D]Then listens to the radio we [G]plays it good and [D]loud
A scoff on the [Bm]Coleman stove is [D]bound to [A]draw a [D]crowd

[D]When the weekend's over and we're [G]headed back to [D]town
A half inch of [Bm]sloppy snow [D]lying on the [A]ground
[D]A hundred dollars poorer, who [G]wants to be [D]rich
We just had a l[Bm]ovely time [D]out [A]in the [D]pits
