Capo I 

Intro 

G C G  
G  G G/F# Em  C 
G  G G/F# Em  C D G 

verse 1 

G                 C     G 
I've been walking in my sleep 
G   G/F#  Em                           C 
Counting  troubles instead of counting sheep 
G                     G G/F#  Em  
Where the years went, I can't say 
       C             D                 G 
I just turned around  and they've gone away 

verse 2 

And 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 

Chorus 1 

(G)       G    C        G  
It's gone away in yesterday 
G   G/F#  Em                         C  
And I     find myself on the mountainside 
          G      G/F#   Em 
Where the rivers change direction 
C          D     G 
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 

Chorus 2 

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) 

It's gone away in yesterday 
And I find myself on the mountainside 
Where the rivers change direction 
Across the great divide 

It's gone away in yesterday 
And I find myself on the mountainside 
Where the rivers change direction 
C          D     G    
Across the great divide...
