Intro verse 1 I've been walking in my sleep Counting troubles instead 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, And it was one that happened so long ago. ( It's gone away in yesterday And I find myself on the mountainside Where the rivers change direction Across the great divide. verse 3 Now I heard the owl calling Softly as the night was falling, With a question, and I replied, But he's gone across the borderline. He's gone away in yesterday, And I find myself on the mountainside Where the rivers change direction Across the great divide. solo/break (Verse) 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 1 (X2) Tag Where the rivers change direction Across the great divide.
