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