Chords for BlackFly Song

_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
It was early in the spring when I decided to go
[Am] For to work up in the woods [Em] in North Ontario
_ And [C] the unemployment office said they'd send me through
To [A] the [Am] little lab it could be in [Em] a survey crew
[Am] And the black flies, the little [Em] black [C] flies Always a black fly no matter where you [Dm] go
I'll die with a black [D] fly picking my bones In North [C] Ontario, I-O, I-O, North [G] [Am] Ontario _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ Then Black Toby was the captain of our crew [Am] And he said I'm gonna tell you [Em] boys what we're
gonna [C] do We wanna build a power dam and we must find
a way For [Am] to make the little lab [Em] flow run the other
way [Am] Oh the black flies, the little black [C] flies
Always a black fly no matter where you [Dm] go I'll die with a black fly picking my bones
In North [C] Ontario, I-O, I-O, [Em] North [Am] Ontario
So _ [Bm] _
[C] _ _ _ we surveyed to the east and we surveyed to the [Am] west
And we couldn't make [Em] our minds up how to do it best
[C] Little lab, little lab, what shall I [Am] do?
With a mama going [Em] crazy in the survey [Am] crew
Black flies, the little black [C] flies Always a black fly no matter where you go
[Dm] I'll die with a black fly picking my bones In North [C] Ontario, I-O, I-O, North [G] [Am] Ontario
_ _ _ [C] _ _
_ It was black fly, black fly everywhere [Am]
Crawling in your [Em] whiskers or crawling in your
[C] hair Swimming in the soup and swimming in the [Am] tea
Oh the devil take the black [Em] fly, let me [Am] be Black flies, the little black [C] flies
Always a black fly no matter where you go [Dm] I'll die with a black fly picking my bones
In North [C] Ontario, I-O, I-O, North [G] Ontario
[Am] _ Black [Bm] _ [C] _ _ _ _
Toby felt the swearing and the work went slow
And [Am] the state of our morale [Em] was getting pretty low
[C] The flies formed heavy, it was hard to catch your [Am] breath
Then you staggered up and [Em] down the trail talking to [Am] yourself
Black flies, the little [B] black [C] flies Always a black fly no matter where you [Dm] go
I'll die with a black fly picking my bones In North [C] Ontario, I-O, I-O, North [Am] Ontario
The _ [Bm] _ [C] _ _ _ _ bull cuck's name was Blind River [Am] Joe If it hadn't been [Em] for him we'd have never
been true [C] Cause he ground us for bruises and he kitted
us for fun [Am] And he blathered us in [Em] baking grease and balsam
gum [Am] For the black flies, the little [C] black flies
Always a black fly no matter where you [A] go I'll [Dm] die with a black fly picking my bones
In North [C] Ontario, I-O, I-O, [G] North [Am] Ontario
And _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ at last the job was over, Black Toby said we're through
_ _ [G] With [Am] the little Levitibia [Em] and the survey crew
It [C] was a wonderful experience and this I know
_ [Am] I'll never go again to [Em] North Ontario _ _ _ _
