Blue light rain, whoa 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, whoa, I walk and wonder why,
They say love your brother, but you will catch it when you try.

Roll you down the line boy, drop you for a loss,
Ride you out on a cold railroad and nail you to a cross.

November and more, as I wait for the score,
They're telling me forgiveness is the key to every door.
A slow winter day a night like forever,
Sink like a stone, float like a feather.

(instrumental)
Lilac rain, unbroken chain, Song of the sawhet owl.
Out on the mountain, it'll drive you insane, Listening to the winds howl

Unbroken chain of sorrow and pearls, Unbroken chain of shy and sea.
Unbroken chain of the western wind, Unbroken chain of you and me.

What an unconventional approach to song writing and structure. Is that what happens when a bas player writes a song...maybe so maybe not, definitely when it is Phil! RIP, keep everyone on their toes up there.

Love it or hate it, this one is definitely a long strange trip.

if it weren't for the bat flying by the mic, the song would be better for it.

Temporarily* rated "7" in memoriam (1 week), and for surviving this long since the wild 60's which many of his higher-profile contemporaries did not.  [*I have, so I'm kinda giving myself a pat on the back, which is why it's temporary - also because I don't rate between 1 and 7, I leave those unrated, don't want to rain on anyone's parade.]
 
Addendum:  OOPS, I guess once rated it can't be un-rated...  so it will remain a "7".  Phil was a lucky guy all around!

“The only song…”. For Phil and, of course, we’re all thinking BOR. 
Well played. Thank you. 
we love you, Phil.

Pretty sure I've never heard this before. Had to check in because I didn't recognize it as The Dead. Kinda cool, different.

I'm a long-time Deadhead and also LOVE this cut.  Gave it an 8.

I am definitely NOT a dead fan.   However, this song and Box of Rain are two of my favorite pieces of music.   Phil Lesh has got it.

Right?  Even though this one doesn't sound like a standard Dead song, it is unmistakable who is playing when Phil lights up Big Brown.

This seems to divide opinions, even among DeadHeads. Sound like The Dead doing prog rock, I rather like it.

YMMV is the truth.  If I heard this tinny, I am at the dentist with a chop saw sound while tripping I would never have tripped again.  UGH!!

Unbroken Chain is an incredible song. The chord progression is very complex and nuanced - and melodic! The lyrics are meaningful and thought provoking.

I feel as though it represents a decompression or return to safe port and therefore find it relaxing. I am a musician and do not consider myself a DeadHead but, in my humble opinion, this song is a musical masterpiece and Mars Hotel is their best album. Listen with an open mind!

This is a weird song: the first half is pretty good with the guitar riffs...the second has the cheezy keyboards and terrible vocals.

This may explain why I don't think I heard it at their shows.

This cut ha aged fairly well, given the too-much-artistic-control album.  I don't hear the background noise cited below. They were in the throes of not breakup, but self-production of records.  They shoulda stuck to their night-jobs.  This cut has some of the finest (actually, fully there) Garcia jazz-noodling that he recorded.

I support and repair computers for my day job and the background noise is just like the sound of a computer hard drive about to fail. I was not expecting to hear it in a Grateful Dead track - or in any music to be honest. Takes all sorts I suppose.

As someone who usually dislikes anything from Grateful Dead. I actually like the wondering nature of this. It's disjointed and messy...yet it's very in tune (unusual characteristic) and the arrangement has a randomness about it that is appealing. Hmmm...am I changing?

I feel like I'm standing in a hallway and in each room leading off it a different piece of music is playing. Just to add to the din, in one room somebody is doing a spot of DIY, or is that the one with the dentist in it ... Unlistenable, time to move on and hit PSD

reckonized this from the high pitch sound from my headphones sitting on my desk. "Ohhhh!, Greatful Dead!", I said to myself. But the good memories faded quickly, not so sure reality and the Dead mix well and right now, reality is rearing its head

Wonderful to hear this. I distinctly recall first hearing the song on Mars Hotel in my apartment in Germantown Philadelphia 1974, under the influence of some mycelia and their associated alkaloids. As much as I agree that Dead songs in concert were more often improvements over the records, Phil's voice was rarely any better than this. His singing has never been stellar, anyway. Pay attention to the thundering bass at the beginning and you should not be disappointed.
