Biografia:
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 - Rebecca's Lament
## NOTE: Ddim7 = XX0101 ##
## NOTE: Dm7/C = X30211 ##
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C F C G Ddim7 Am F G C
F C G
The last time I saw him, he'd been swallowed by the wood
Am F C G
I'd have followed if I could, he'd have stayed had he wanted
C F C G
Had he the desire or had I the will
Am F C G
I would be with him still, but instead he just haunts me
F C F
I knew when he faded, I'd ne'er see him again
Dm Dm7/C F G
His laughter's embrace would no more me surround
C F C G
The chill that went through me, is the chill wind that blows
Ddim7 Am F G C
Through the soft midnight stillness of Chilicote town
INTERLUDE: F C G Ddim7 Am F G C
F C G
The smell of the blanket he wrapped 'round my shoulders
Am F C G
Comes back to me now on a faint wisp of smoke
C F C G
Comes back with a vengeance that makes me remember
Am F C G
Those nights 'round the fire, when fond words we spoke
F C F
That blanket was woven in some shattered village
Dm Dm7/C F G
That is gone now forever, may never be found
C F C G
His people are scattered, their fondest hopes dashed
Ddim7 Am F G C
He'd have been better off here in Chilicote town
INTERLUDE: F C G Ddim7 Am F G C
F C G
I knew from the start just where he stood
Am F C G
About his intentions, there was no mistake
C F C G
To stay, meant his dream, so dear to his heart
Am F C G
Was the one thing he knew he must somehow forsake
F C F
He just couldn't see that the old ways were passing
Dm Dm7/C F G
A new wave was rising and he would be drowned
C F C G
And like it or not, the history's written
Ddim7 Am F G C
Not in the forest, but in Chilicote town
INTERLUDE: F C G Ddim7 Am F G C
F C G
There's sadness in parting from what we hold dear
Am F C G
There's a danger in staying for fear we'll be lost
C F C G
One half of us wishes to live out our dreams
Am F C G
The other half reckons and counts out the cost
F C F
Though we may go on to a far greater glory
Dm Dm7/C F G
By knowing where destiny is sure to be found
C F C G
I wish him no ill, though I wish him no fame
Ddim7 Am F G C
Than such fame as he'd find here in Chilicote town
INTERLUDE: F C G Ddim7 Am F G C
F C G
The last time I saw him, he'd been swallowed by the wood
Am F C G
I'd have followed if I could, he'd have stayed had he wanted
