Oh, Oh Deep water

Black, and cold like the night

I've stand with my arms wide open

I've run a twisted line

I'm a stranger

in the eyes of the maker

I could not see

for the fog in my eyes

I could not feel

for the fear in my life

From across the great divide

In the distance i saw a light

Jean baptiste

walking to me with the maker

My body is bent and broken

by long and dangerous sleep

I can't work the fields of abraham

and turn my head away

I'm not a stranger

in the hands of the maker

Brother john

Have you seen the homeless daughters

standing there

with broken wings

I have seen the flaming swords

there over east of eden

burning in the eyes of the maker

burning in the eyes of the maker

burning in the eyes of the maker

burning in the eyes of the maker

oh river rise from your sleep....

Jerry Garcia Band was doing a great version just before he died.

You are exactly correct. I love DM & Tim Reynolds and their version, but hey... covers are somewhat of continuation and playing with the idea of the composer (the original artist) without demolishing it. Dave gives a great credit to Daniel every time he performs this song - all versions are beautiful. Check how Jerry Garcia breathes some different magic into it.

Whether I like the dave version better or not (which i do because i love dave's voice more than life itself) it's still the original and without Daneil Lanois this song wouldn't exist and you wouldn't even know the dave version.

The Tea Party have made this song theirs, much like they did The Messenger, and Jolie Louise. Huge Daniel Lanois fans as it were. Aren't we all?

Never heard a poor version of this song... Daniel's original is brilliant, Jerry Garcia Band nailed it, and yes, Dave Matthews mastered it! Guess that's the beauty of such a perfect song!

He looks like an alcoholic pirate that kicks ass on the guitar.
