Isn't Cash's song also a cover?

This version blows the original out of the water IMO. Cash's recording is the sound of a man at the end of his life. Haunting and beautiful. @AslatIE, are you playing this on your neck/rhythm pickup? It sounds quite "plinky", like it had been done off the bridge/treble. An acoustic would sound much nicer.

I might have left it on the bridge pickup unnoticed. My acoustic is shite and so is my mic

Beautiful. I like both versions, but I think Cash's is a bit more haunting. I gotta give it to him.

Agree, like SoundOfAGun said, it's the sound of a man at the end of his life. It makes it so much more haunting and beautiful.
