Party Pit by The Hold Steady
Party Pit
G G/F# Bm C
i guess I met her at the party pit
she said those kids she's with were selling it
so we sailed off on some separate trips
she got pinned down at the party pit.
I went away to school that fall
she stuck around with all those stickpin dolls
sped through the scene until the engine stalled
at some suburban shopping mall
Em D C D
sailed away on such separate trips

she got pinned down at the party pit.
I came back to start a band, of course.
saw her walking thru the crystal court.
she made a scene by the revolving doors
she's gonna walk around and drink some more.
so we walked across that grain belt bridge.
into bright new minneapolis
she said i think that all those things I did
were just momentum from the party pit.
sailed away on such separate trips
she got pinned down at the party pit
I'm pretty sure we kissed.
G G/F# Bm C for this part
gonna walk around and drink some more
gonna walk around and drink.

[ VERSE 2 ] - Repeat second part of the riff of verse 1 over the lyrics:
I came back to start a band, of course.
I saw her walking thru the crystal court.
She made a scene by the revolving doors.
She's gonna walk around and drink some more.
So we walked across that grain belt bridge.
Into bright new minneapolis
She said i think that all those things I did.
Were just momentum from the party pit.
