Spirit Of The West
G*:  3 2 0 0 3 3

                 G    D   G        G*                  D
     Well, we're good old boys, we come from the North Shore,
     C               G          D                            
     Drinkers and carousers the likes you've never seen;
              G      D  G       G*                      D
     And this night, by God! We drank till there was no more,
              C              G          D              G
     From the Troller to the Raven with all stops in between.

        G                              D
Well it all began one afternoon on the shores of Ambleside,
                                                G
We were sittin' there quite peacefully with the rising of the tide;
                                    D
When an idea it came to mind for to usher in the Fall,
                                        C             G
So we all agreed next Friday night we'd go out on the crawl.

                 G    D   G        G*                  D
     Well, we're good old boys, we come from the North Shore,
     C               G          D                            
     Drinkers and carousers the likes you've never seen;
              G      D  G       G*                      D
     And this night, by God! We drank till there was no more,
              C              G          D              G
     From the Troller to the Raven with all stops in between.

   G                                   D
We planned to have a gay old time, the cash we did not spare,
                                 G
We left all the cars at home and paid the taxi fare;
                             D
I got out to Horseshoe Bay a little after five,
                                      C            G

                 G    D   G        G*                  D
     Well, we're good old boys, we come from the North Shore,
     C               G          D                            
     Drinkers and carousers the likes you've never seen;
              G      D  G       G*                      D
     And this night, by God! We drank till there was no more,
              C              G          D              G
     From the Troller to the Raven with all stops in between.
 
    G                                     D
The spirits they ran high that night, old stories we did share,
                                         G
Of the days when we were younger men and never had a care;
                                    D
The beer flowed like a river and we drank the keg near dry,
                                            C              G
So we drained down all our glasses and were thirsty by-and-by.

                 G    D   G        G*                  D
     Well, we're good old boys, we come from the North Shore,
     C               G          D                            
     Drinkers and carousers the likes you've never seen;
              G      D  G       G*                      D
     And this night, by God! We drank till there was no more,
              C              G          D              G
     From the Troller to the Raven with all stops in between.

     G                                   D
Park Royal Hotel, The Rusty Gull, Square-Rigger and Queen's Cross,
                                          G
We'd started out with eight good boys but half had gotten lost;
                                                   D
For you'll never keep the lads together when their eyes begin to rove,
                                       C               G
So there was just the three of us that made it to Deep Cove.

                 G    D   G        G*                  D
     Well, we're good old boys, we come from the North Shore,
     C               G          D                            
     Drinkers and carousers the likes you've never seen;
              G      D  G       G*                      D
     And this night, by God! We drank till there was no more,
              C              G          D              G
     From the Troller to the Raven with all stops in between.

      G                             D
We arrived out at The Raven just in time for the last call,
                                  G
The final destination of this the first annual crawl;
       G                                  D
We dug deep into our pockets there was no money to be found,
                        C              G
Nine miles home and for walking we are bound.
