[A]
[F#m] [D]
[A] [F#m]
[E] [A]
I've been walking in my sleep
[F#m] Counting troubles instead of [A] counting sheep
[D] Where [A] the years went, I [F#m] can't say
I just turned [E] around and they've gone [A] away
I've been sifting through the layers
[F#m] Dusty books and [D] faded papers
[A] Tell a story I used [F#m] to know
And it was [D] one that happened [E] so [A] long ago
It's gone away yesterday
Now [F#m] I find myself on the [D] mountainside
[A] Where the rivers change direction [D] across the [A] great divide
Now I heard the owl a [A]-calling [F#m] softly as
The night was [A] falling with a question
And I [F#m] replied, [D] but he's gone [E] across the [A] borderline
He's gone away [D] yesterday
[F#m] Now I find myself on [D] the mountainside
[A] Where the rivers [F#m] change direction across [A] the great divide
The
[F#m]
[D] [A]
[F#m] [D]
[A] finest tower that I have seen
[F#m] Is the one that [A] comes between
The edge of night and the break of [F#m] day
[D] It's when the darkness [A] rolls away
And it's gone away yesterday
[F#m] Now I find myself on [D] the mountainside
[A] Where the rivers change [E] direction across [A] the great divide
And it's gone away yesterday
[F#m] Now I find myself on the [D] mountainside
It's where the [E] rivers change direction across the great [A] divide
