Capo I
 
[Intro]
 
[C] [F] [C] 
[C] [Am] [F] 
[C] [Am] [F G C]
 
[Verse 1]
C                 F     C
I've been walking in my sleep
C        Am                           F
Counting  troubles instead of counting sheep
C                     C      Am
Where the years went, I can't say
       F             G                 C
I just turned around  and they've gone away
 
[Verse 2]
C                     F           C
And I've been sifting through the layers
   C       Am                F
Of dusty    books and faded papers
C                   C         Am
They tell a story I used to    know
                    F        G         C
And it was one that happened   so long ago
 
[Chorus 1]
(C)       C    F        C
It's gone away in yesterday
C        Am                         F
And I     find myself on the mountainside
          C            Am
Where the rivers change direction
F          G     C
Across the great divide
 
[Verse 3]
      C         F   C
Now I heard the owl calling
C       Am               F
Softly   as the night was falling
       C             C     Am
With a question, and I replied
         F    G                C
But he's gone across the borderline
 
[Chorus 2]
(C)       C    F        C
It's gone away in yesterday
C        Am                         F
And I     find myself on the mountainside
          C            Am
Where the rivers change direction
F          G     C
Across the great divide
 
[solo] (verse)
 
[Verse 4]
(C)        C         F      C
The finest hour that I have seen
C      Am             F
Is the  one that comes between
            C             C         Am
The edge of night and the break of   day
              F        G       C
It's when the darkness   rolls away
 
[Chorus/Outro]
(C)       C    F        C
It's gone away in yesterday
C   C/B  Am                         F
And I     find myself on the mountainside
          C      C/B   Am
Where the rivers change direction
F          G     C
Across the great divide
 
(C)       C    F        C
It's gone away in yesterday
C        Am                         F
And I     find myself on the mountainside
          C            Am
Where the rivers change direction
F          G     C
Across the great divide...
