Biography:
The Hold Steady is an American rock band based in Brooklyn formed by vocalist/guitarist Craig Finn (ex-Lifter Puller) in 2004. Wanting to capture the sound of bands such as The Replacements and The Grifters, Finn recruited guitarist Tad Kubler (also ex-Lifter Puller), drummer Judd Counsell, and bassist Galen Polivka. In 2005 the band grew to include Franz Nicolay (of The World/Inferno Friendship Society) on keyboards and Bobby Drake took over on drums following Counsell's departure.

Band: The Hold Steady
Song: Party Pit
Album: Boys and Girls in America
Just three parts to this song... the verse, chorus and the breakdown part, which I
bothered to figure out. Enjoy.
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
Em (VII)
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.
