[Intro 1]
[D][G][Gm][G][C][G][Em][C]
[Gm][G][C][G][Em][C]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
I've been [G]walkin' [C]in my [G]sleep
[D]Countin' [Em]troubles 'stead
of countin' [C]sheep
Where [G]the years went I can't [Em]say
I just [C]turned [D]around and
they've gone away
[G]

[Verse 2]
I've been siftin' [C]through the [G]layers
Of dusty [Em]books and [G]faded pa[C]pers
They tell [G]a story I used to [Em]know
And it was one [G]that [C]happened
[D]so long ago
[G]

[Verse 3]
It's gone away in [C]yester[G]day
Now I [Em]find myself on
the moun[G]tain[C] side
Where the [G]rivers change [Em]dir ection
[G]Acr[C]oss the Great Di [D]vide
[G]

[Verse 4]
Now, I hear the [C]owl a-callin'
[G]Softly [D]Softly [Em]as the night w[D]as f[C]allin'
With [G]a question and I [Em]replied
But he's [C]gone [D]across the borderline
[G]

[Verse 5]
It's gone away in [C]yester[G] day
Now I [Em]find myself on
the [D]moun[C]tainside
Where the [G]rivers change [Em]dir ection
[G]Acr[C]oss the[D] Great Divide

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G]
[Em][C][G]
[Em][C][D][G]

[Verse 6]
The finest [G]hour that I have seen
Is the [Em]one that comes [C]between
The edge [G]of night and the
break of [Em]day
It's when the [C]darkness [D]rol[G]ls away

[Verse 7]
[G]
It's gone away in [C]yester[G]day
Now I [Em]find myself on
the moun[C]tainside
Where the [G]rivers [D]change [G]dir[Em] ection
[G]Acr[C]oss the Gre[D]at Divide
[G]

[Verse 8]
It's gone away in [C]yester[G]day
Now I [Em]find myself on the
[D]moun[C]tainside
Where the [G]rivers [D]change [Em]direction
[C]Across the [D]Great Divide
[G]
