I've been walking in my sleep
Counting troubles 'stead of counting sheep
Where the years went I can't say
I just turned around and they've gone away
[Verse 2]
I've been sifting through the layers
Of dusty books and faded papers
They tell a story I used to know
It was one that happened so long ago
[Chorus]
It's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
[Verse 3]
Now, I heard the owl a-callin'
Softly as the night was fallin'
With a question and I replied
But he's gone across the borderline
[Chorus]
It's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
[Solo] Full Verse : G C G Em C G Em C D G
[Verse 4]
The finest hour that I have seen
Is the one that comes between
The edge of night and the break of day
It's when the darkness rolls away
[Chorus]
It's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
[Chorus]
It's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
