Unbroken Chain - Grateful Dead

Blue light rain, unbroken chain

Looking for familiar faces in an empty window pane

Listening for the secret, searching for the sound

But I could only hear the preacher and the baying of his hounds

Willow sky, I walk and wonder why

They say love your brother, but you will get it if you try

Roll you down the line, boy, drop you for a loss

Ride you down on a cold railroad and nail you to a cross

(To F7)

November and more, as I wait for the score

They tell me forgiveness is the key to every door

(That goes D-minor 7th, C-major 7th, F, E-minor, G)

A slow winter day, a night like forever

Sink like a stone, float like a feather

(This here is the instrumental

The short length of the pause between the parts of this rhythm is correct)

(D-minor 7th, C-major 7th)

(D-minor 7th, C-major 7th, G-minor 7th, F, E-minor)

Lilac rain, unbroken chain

Song of the sawhet owl

Oh, out on the mountain, it’ll drive you insane

Listening to the wind howl

Unbroken chain of sorrow and pearls

Unbroken chain of the sea

Unbroken chain of the western wind

Unbroken chain of you and me

Um, let me hear that, let me hear the whole thing, would ya?

Just through the phones…
