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 - Hold Your Ground
## NOTE: ~ = Walk-down from C ##
CAPO: 2nd Fret
G N.C.
Somewhere inside my soul there is an echo of my youth
G N.C. G
Some pithy little saying that contained a grain of truth
C
If patience is a virtue, persistence is its mark
G
It's better to light a candle than to stand and curse the dark
D Am G C
But if we stand together, we might turn this world around
C-G-D-G C ~
Hold your ground__
G
In the corridors of power, where our voice is seldom heard
The status quo is what they want, they can get it with a word
C
For us it takes a thousand voices, a million angry shouts
G
To notify the ship of state to bring its course about
D Am G C
But if we pull together, we might turn this ship around
C-G-D-G C-G-D-G C-G-D-G C ~
Hold your ground__
Em C G Em
Oh___, this world is changing
C
Spinning out through space and time
Em C G
Oh___, it's rearranging
Am C
All the things we thought were yours and mine
F C G
You've got to hold your ground
Am G F
Hold your ground
C G
Hold your ground
Am G F
Hold your ground
G
Sometimes it seems the motion is strictly retrograde
There are so many reversals of advances that you've made
C
The things you thought were changing have shuddered to a halt
G
The only view is forward when your back's against the wall
D Am G C
But if we stand together we might turn this world around
C-G-D-G C ~
Hold your ground__
INSTRUMENTAL: Em C G Em C Em C G Am G C
F C G
You've got to hold your ground
Am G F
Hold your ground
C G
Hold your ground
Am G F
Hold your ground
G
It isn't for the faint of heart to bet when odds are long
And neither is it easy to be right in face of wrong
C
You must proceed from strength to strength, although the road is rough
G
And sometimes human courage just isn't quite enough
D Am G C
But if we stand together we might turn this world around
Hold your ground (Hold your ground)
Hold your ground (Hold your ground)
~ G C ~
Hold your ground
