  • From Tragically Hip's 1998 Phantom Power album. In memory of Gord Downie, truly an artist to be revered and remembered well. I do not own the rights to this song. I like to play.

    My god your voice sells this song 100% especially the 3:30-400 minute part

    One of my all time favorites. Even though the song is about Jim, the lyrics are open enough to have a real melancholy magic about them. Well done man

    Awesome Shawn!! your passion for Gord and the Hip's music shines through. Not being Canadian, I've always been transfixed by the loyalty of their fans to their incredible music, lyrics and cohesiveness. I got to see them in small clubs in Harrisburg, PA in the late 80's early 90's. Feel blessed. The Psychedelic Furs opened for the first show I saw, very surreal! Was very saddened by Gord's passing. I play and try to sing their songs all the time. Keep their presence going! Thank You!

    Written by Gord in memory of Jim Ellison of Critical Issue. Jims band was on their way up and a chance meeting with Gord left a powerful impression on Gord. A few years later Gord found out that Jim had committed suicide, so he wrote a song about their fleeting encounter.

    Awesome job, I can’t find any chords or tabs that use this method of playing this song do you have a link or remember what they are exactly? I can’t seem to make out what you are doing here. Sounds great 👍🏼

      It's my interpretation, from listening since it was released and matching it to my vocal range. Sorry, I barely have time to do the video uploads; I can't tab it for you. Thanks for enjoying it.

      Hi Jean, no I played this in standard I believe. If anything was different, try D# standard but I don't have my tuner to check. Just showing a friend and glad you enjoyed it!
