SOL
I took a trip up Gillis Mountain
MIm DO RE
On a sunny summer day
DO MIm/SI LAm RE
There were ruts in the road and the four wheel drive
MIm DO RE
Spun itís wheels in the rocks and the clay
MIm DO RE SOL
Yes it spun itís wheels in the rocks and the clay.
On our way up Gillis Mountain
On that sunny summer day
There were spruce trees growing on the fields
Where fore-fathers once made hay
Where our fore-fathers once made hay.
Chorus
-------
DO RE SOL DO
And oh - oh - oh Gillis Mountain
DO RE MIm DO RE SOL
Oh - oh - oh Where fore-fathers once made hay.
The Gillisí lived on the mountain
For about a hundred years
Where we pick berries they cleared land
Spent their blood and sweat and tears
They spent their blood and sweat and tears.
Chorus
-------
DO RE SOL DO
And oh - oh - oh Gillis Mountain
C D Em C D G (hold for 6 beats then E7 for 2)
Oh - oh - oh Spent their blood and sweat and tears.
