This man is not only a great song writer but he is a beautiful poet. Just wonderful!
👍4 ever a part of my life...the countless days and hours I laid on the floor with a pair of headphones on in the 70,s and listened to his GREAT music. Back then, I had school and sports in the day and listened to Lightfoot, Elton, and Carly in the evening .....RIP!!
Rest in peace Gordon. Top of the list artist for my husband and me. He cancled twice at Fox in Tucson, Arizona. Was looking forward to seeing him for the fourth time. If You Could Read My Mind ,my favorite .
I’m so sad hearing that he just passed away. The greatest storyteller. A Micah genius. Thank you for the beautiful music. RIP

Rest in peace Gordon You intrigued my love life as a young teen. I was a dreamer then still dreaming today. All those beautiful woman you shared your poetry leaving a mark on so many lives!
beautiful and haunting at the same time.
Growing up in Montreal in the 1970s, Gordon Lightfoot's songs were a staples on local radio. I was about 5 or 6 when this song came out. Had no idea what it was about but something about it touched me. As an adult it took on a whole new meaning. It is haunting and melancholy but beautiful at the same time. Rest in Peace Mr. Lightfoot :(
Glad you enjoyed it
1971 love song.CLASSIC.
Thank you for the music. RIP Gordon.
The blacklist is why I came here the song is now one of my favorites
Timeless passionate music that makes me throw all problems away for 3:49. Thx for upload
Just wanted to say how much your channel helps me relax during these troubled times. Thanks for posting these songs.
He has such beautiful lyrics and a recognizable voice. I've loved the stories he told in his music. Captivating!
This song came out when I was in high school......it remains a favorite! 😊
This is absolutely wonderful! Following along on my ukelele to one of my all time favorite songs. Thanks for posting this!
Great song and great singer! I watched this movie after hearing this tune . Judith and the seekers were great
Tears flow everytime I think of the message being sent out. But, it is one of the best tunes in existence!
Cry baby.
....me too
@@TheBigMclargehuge Good to know! There's a FEW people who STILL have EMMOTIONS!!👍🙏Be Safe!!
@@chauneejoseph7983 My safety isn't your concern.
@@TheBigMclargehuge I am not concerned!!!👌
I grew up in the Rochester, NY area, just across the Lake (Ontario) from where Gordon comes from. I heard his music all the time on Western NY radio stations. What a wonderful writer & recording artist he is! His music never gets old!
As a shy, handsome guy, with all kinds of pretty women after me, yet me being clueless (shy guys don't interact with women much) - this song reveals my pained heart!
A great musician. I was in college in the early 70's and he other artist ruled the airwaves with their soft rock.
Your lessons have sparked such great memories for this 75-year-old guitar player!!! Thank You!!
Glad to hear that!
R.I.P. Gordon. thanks for the music.
Crying tonight for my recently ex and this song, but not for GL - he lived a great life and is now on his next journey.
Absolutley the BEST way to learn playing Gordon Lightfoots songs .... Could you do More songs , Talking In Your Sleep , Robin Trower , Jimi Hendrix
Nicely done. Thanks much!
Thank you for all that you do. Great stuff.
It strikes me how much the graphic novel (and TV series) "Locke & Key" seems to be based on this one song. I always got the feeling while listening : "This song could inspire me to do several works of art", but I guess someone beat me to it!
Love lost. Great song!!one of my all time favs
Sad day...a great poet and singer is gone...
Rest in Power
r.i.p. a beautiful song

Another amazing song that I have just discovered, I had no idea who he was but this song is so beautiful and
soulful, I am so glad I found it, wonderful.
Thanks for listening
We lost a national treasure
Sad.....sad. But when real love comes NOTHING. absolutely nothing can take the feeling away.
So true, probably why I can't stop crying 😭 everytime I hear it. But definitely excellent tune.
Oh wow! I'd love to be able to play this song on my guitar! I'm just learning how to play the guitar. I remember my dad playing this song, on his. I hope I can learn how to play it, this song is so beautiful. XO
Wonderful! :D
i just love this song so much
I am glad for you that you found C and that she makes you happy.
I've got to say that I (D) just don't get it. The hero (D) would be (Em) mE. But heroes often fail...
Excellent! Thank you!!
Just like an old time movie, 'bout a ghost from a wishing well.
In a castle dark or a fortress strong, with chains upon my feet.
You know that ghost is me.
godspeed dude
It's funny, reading these comments was how I found out that Mr. Lightfoot had passed away and as I sat listening to the song and thinking over how the song had always made me feel and also kind of mourning the loss of a great writer I had an epiphany: This was exactly how I've always felt when I listened to "If you could read my mind", just like this, a little moody, a little contemplative, maybe even a little depressed but...soothed too. Maybe that's what Gordon was going for, I don't know but his writing and my heart were walking side-by-side for a moment and it was a little miracle I hadn't expected. RIP, Gordon.
Thanks Joanne. 😊
You’re welcome 😊
Just heard the sad news today RIP
I truly powerful song.
Thank You ❣️
There's so many songs that I've known for decades that I've never really felt the depth and gravity of until I started singing and playing them. (badly)
I love the soar.
You will be missed...
RIP Gordon Lightfoot
gordon lightfoot wrote this fantastic song about his impending divorce great great song
I'm probably the 200k out of the 210k views on this :D
thank you. after looking at a list of chords and muttering to myself about a G7 chord that I couldn't hear when listening to the tune, I feel a little vindicated. not to say it isn't in one of Lightfoot's performances, but it's a lovely song as presented here.
It's two years late, but fyi, there is concert video of GL playing this song with a capo on the second fret.
@@thomascolbert2687 thank you :)
Been trying to learn this song
Exactly!
Fantastic 🍺🍺🍺👍
Thank you kindly
To Play this properly it needs to be finger picked ... Not an easy pattern. The Intro Chords are G G(add9) Verse starts G G(add9) Dm6/F . Have fun, I have Gords original sheet music for this that I bought back in 1980 .
Ok great for beginners
I dont know where we went wrong but the feelings gone and I just cant get it back
Can we talk about the string arrangement? And the second (third?) guitar parts?
I am so happy to find your channel...I retired after 40 years with GM and have been focusing on playing guitar better and you have a lot of songs on here that I can play along with and it just brings me joy to be able to do this...I DO have a question for you: I'm confused because whenever the number it says to use the capo on it's seems to be the one before it..I asked my musician brother on a zoom call about it and he says maybe my capo isn't tight enough? Does that make sense? Anyways I find a way to make it work and look forward to many more ...This latest one is one of my all time favorite songs by Gordon Lightfoot so thank you for contributing these songs with the chords and lyrics.
If by the number before you mean instead of putting the capo on 2nd fret you are saying you have to put it on the first in order to get the same key as the original? My guess would be the original song is tuned a half step down and your guitar is in standard E tuning. That would render your key a half step too high if the song is in Eb tuning. Not sure what else could be the problem
@@Shadezman76 Yes that is exactly what I'm saying..even if it says Capo 1 then it doesn't need a capo but I will look into what you're saying about the tuning of my guitar...I learned to play by ear so I'm doing the best I can without any help, so thank you for pointing this out to me.
According to gordon Lightfoot songbook; standard tuning, capo on 2nd fret. I try to play along to thr recording, sounds in tune, I just have to work out the fingerstyle pattern
Give u a go inni
Simply outstanding. o7 Gordon... A tribute to you in my repertoire.
Good video but couple things...the I'd walk away G goes to a G7 before the C.....and the You won't read that book again is C, then C/B before the Am7 it's a descending walk down from C to Am7
That's what i was thinking C-E7/B/Am7/D.. Its used in LOTS of songs now that I think of it
RIP
fine, remember me the song greatest love at all de whitney houston
