[Verse 1]

[G]I've been wal[C]king in my sl[G]eep

Counting t[Em]roubles 'stead of counting shee[C]p

Where the [G]years went I can'[Em]t say

I just [C]turned around [D]and they've gone a[G]way
 
[Verse 2]

[G]I've been sifti[C]ng through the [G]layers

Of dusty [Em]books and faded p[C]apers

They tell a [G]story I used t[Em]o know

And it was one that [C]happen[D]ed so long [G]ago
 
[Chorus]

[G]It's gone away [C]in yest[G]erday

Now I [Em]find myself on the mountain[C]side

Where the [G]rivers change[Em] direction

A[C]cross t[D]he Great Di[G]vide
 
[Verse 3]

[G]Now, I heard t[C]he owl a[G]-callin'

Softly a[Em]s the night was [C]fallin'

With a [G]question and I [Em]replied

But he's [C]gone a[D]cross the border[G]line
 
[Chorus]

[G]It's gone away [C]in yest[G]erday

Now I [Em]find myself on the mountain[C]side

Where the [G]rivers change[Em] direction

A[C]cross t[D]he Great Di[G]vide

[Verse 4]

T[G]he finest hour that [C]I have s[G]een

Is the [Em]one that comes be[C]tween
 
The edge of [G]night and the break o[Em]f day

It's when the dar[C]kness [D]rolls aw[G]ay
 
[Chorus]

[G]It's gone away [C]in yest[G]erday

Now I [Em]find myself on the mountain[C]side

Where the [G]rivers change[Em] direction

A[C]cross t[D]he Great Di[G]vide

Now I [Em]find myself on the mountain[C]side

Where the [G]rivers change[Em] direction
