Chords for Something I left Behind - Robbie Robertson

_ [C] Robin has given all native [E] people a lot of strength because I've seen how
aggressively he's gone after his history [Ab] and the history [D] of his people.

[G] _ _ [Gm] _ When I went back to Six Nations it [D] all started to come [G] together for me.
I
started to understand [Gm] why I was doing this.
[F] A lot of it was based on things
[D] from some place deep inside that I forgot was even there.

Like my cousin Douglas says, _ [D] oh good to see you.
What's it been, 30 [C] years?
_ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] It's like Robbie almost in his song [F] he says, I almost missed this [Am] looking [D] the other way. _

[G] _ _ You know for [Dm] all of the things that I've done over the years, _ performances [Gm] and playing all
over places, [C] there's something [Gm] that's making me a little bit more [C] nervous about [G] coming back here
and going to see this little house than any of [F] that. _ _
_ _ [Am] _ You don't [A] see me.
_ _ _ _ [Dm] They don't answer.
_ [Am] _ _ All that remains _ [G] is the shadow of the dance.
[F] _ _ Well you [Dm] can't see.
Don't call me by my first name, Jamie.
[D] Little Jamie.
I hope they don't
[E] call me Little Jamie anymore.
_ _ [G] Well, place [E] hasn't changed too much.
How you doing lad?
Okay.
Nice to see you.
Good [B] to see you.
He first started to come up around our place when he's,
I guess maybe two years old or thereabouts.
I can't remember exactly.
Then after that,
well he came up [Am] every summer.
_ Him and his mother.
He never [Gm] could follow us kids around because we
were in the bush.
He [E] wasn't, _ but he tried.
_ So when did you get the TV put in?
[Gb] _ Ten years ago.
Oh really? _
Kind of modern, eh?
What is this over, you got turkeys?
Mm-hmm.
So you've kept the outhouse, uh, you bet.
Very [Dm] _ _ [Eb] well kept.
Gotta use something.
_ Too far to walk to the bush anymore.
[N] _ _
