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 - Jack Haggerty
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C F C F C F C G C
I'm a stout hearted raftsman where white waters roar
F C F
And my name I've engraved on the high rocks and shore
C
Over Camp Flat and river, I'm very well known
F C G C
They call me Jack Haggerty, the pride of the town
I worked on the river by night and by day
F C F
'Til the blacksmith's fair daughter my heart stole away
C
I'm the boy that stands happy on the dark, burling stream
F C G C
And my thoughts were on Annie, she haunted my dreams
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C F C G C
I gave her fine jewels, the finest of lace
F C F
The costliest muslins, her form to embrace
C
And I gave her my wages, all for to keep safe
F C G C
I deprived her of nothing I had on this earth
I worked on the river, I earned quite a stake
F C F
I was steadfast and steady, and ne'er played the rake
C
For that fair blacksmith's daughter, I'd soon make my bride
F C G C
And I courted her sweetly by the Flat River side
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C F C G C
Then, one day on the river, a note I received
F C F
Saying she from her promise, herself she did leave
C
And she'd wed with another, a long time delayed
F C G C
And the next time I'd see her, she'd no more be a maid
To her mother, Jane Tucker, I laid all the blame
F C F
Well, she caused her to leave me and go back on my name
C
And to cast off the riggings that god was to tie
F C G C
And to leave me a wanderer 'til the day that I die
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C F C G C
So, come all ye bold raftsmen with hearts stout and true
F C F
Don't give your heart quickly, you're beat if you do
C
And when your head's turned by a dark chestnut curl
F C G C
Just remember Jack Haggerty and the Flat River girl
