Biografía:
James Keelaghan is a Juno award-winning Canadian folk singer-songwriter born in Calgary, Alberta, now based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Many of his songs, such as "Kiri's Piano", about the interment of Japanese Canadians, "October 70", about the FLQ crisis, are inspired by events and figures in Canadian history. Known for his lilting baritone voice, his driving rhythm guitar, and a keen sense of scene and narrative, Keelaghan’s music bridges traditional folk music with Canadiana.

James Keelaghan - Country Faire
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: G-D-G C G G-D-G C D G C D G-D-C-D-C-D-G
In the shadow of the cottonwoods, grass don't grow
C G
And it's well you know the reason why
As we stepped out together at the country faire
C D
To dance away the cool from a cool spring night
G
Your hair, spun gold, floated like a reed
C D
That dances on a crystal pond
G Em
And we fell in love at the country faire
C D G G-D-C-D-C-D-G
When we danced to greet the dawn
And I never was much of the frugal sort
C G
I never made the rent on time
But I've two strong hands to support myself
C D
To spin in your arms or to spend my dime
G
Never been much for the candy or the flowers
C D
But I'm always gonna treat you right
G Em
'Cause we fell in love at the country faire
C D G Em C D G
When we danced away the night
CHORUS:
C ~ Am
And it's spin and twirl
D C D C
Is that all you can do in this crazy world?
G D
Spin and twirl, 'til you spin your life away
G
And you were never much the impulsive sort
C G
You think before you make your moves
It's head up high, stand up tall
C D
Never give an inch, never wanna lose
G
Solid as a rock, fluid as the water
C D
When the band begins to play
G Em
And we fell in love at the country faire
C D G
When we danced 'til break of day
INSTRUMENTAL: G-D-G C G G-D-G C D G C D G-D-C-D-C-D-G
So, in the shadow of the cottonwoods, grass don't grow
C G
And it's well you know the reason why
As we stepped out together at the country faire
C D
To dance away the cool from a cool spring night
G
Your hair, spun gold, floated like a reed
C D
That dances on a crystal pond
G Em
And we danced all night 'neath the cottonwood trees
C D G G-D-C-D-C-D-G
And that is why the grass is gone
CHORUS:
C ~ Am
And it's spin and twirl
D C D C
Is that all you can do in this crazy world?
G D
Spin and twirl, 'til you spin your life away
CHORUS:
C ~ Am
And it's spin and twirl
C ~ Am
Spin and twirl
C ~ Am D C-G-Am-Am-D-G
Spin and twirl, 'til you spin your life away
