[Intro]
FF FF FF FF
[Verse 1]
DmDm C majorC FF
Oh, oh deep water
DmDm C majorC FF
Black and cold like the night
Bb majorBb C majorC FF Bb majorBb
I stand with arms wide open, I've run a twisted line
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker
[Verse 2]
DmDm C majorC FF
I could not see for the fog in my eyes
DmDm C majorC FF
I could not feel for the fear in my life
Bb majorBb C majorC FF Bb majorBb
And from across the great divide, in the distance I saw a light
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Jean Baptiste walking to me with the Maker
[Verse 3]
DmDm C majorC FF
My body is bent and broken
DmDm C majorC FF
By long and dangerous sleep
Bb majorBb C majorC FF Bb majorBb
I can't work the fields of Abraham, and turn my head away
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
I'm not a stranger in the hands of the Maker
[Verse 4]
DmDm C majorC FF
Brother John, have you seen the homeless daughters
DmDm C majorC FF
Standing there with broken wings
Bb majorBb C majorC FF Bb majorBb
I have seen the flaming swords, there over east of Eden
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Bb majorBb C majorC FF
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
[Outro]
FF
Oh, river rise from your sleep
FF
Oh, river rise from your sleep
FF
Oh, river rise from your sleep
