Biography:
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 - Lost
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G Am C D G Am C D
CHORUS:
G Am C
Lost, I am lost on the vale of emotion
G Am C
Tossed, like a stone on the stream set in motion
G Am
Held, like a leaf in the wind
C D
We could not but spin and roll
G Am
Glad, that our hearts were full
C D
And we could live beyond control
G Am D G
In your upstairs room we could hear the train
C G D
As it pulled out west on the C.P. Main
G Am
We had followed that course one short year before
C D
When the sea called us to its side once more
G Am
And words we spoke in quiet haste
C D
The time was ours and ours to waste
G Am
Left to ourselves we might shrink and die
C D
You said yes to life and so must I
But I'm...
CHORUS:
G Am C
Lost, I am lost on the vale of emotion
G Am C
Tossed, like a stone on the stream set in motion
G Am
Held, like a leaf in the wind
C D
We could not but spin and roll
G Am
Glad, that our hearts were full
C D G
And we could live beyond control__
INSTRUMENTAL: G Am C D G Am C D
G Am D G
And the wineglass gleams in the candlelight
C G D
Like molten amber for just one night
G Am
And our thoughts they are cast on that self same fire
C D
Ablaze with that urge and that one desire
G Am
A heart set to walk the road
C D
Aware of the weight but not the load
G Am
My hands on the rein and I'm on my way
C D
I won't deal with tomorrow 'til I'm through with today
But I'm...
CHORUS:
G Am C
Lost, I am lost on the vale of emotion
G Am C C-G-D-
Tossed, like a stone on the stream set in motion
G Am
Held, like a leaf in the wind
C D
We could not but spin and roll
G Am
Glad, that our hearts were full
C G D
And we could live beyond control__
