Chord Across The Great Divide by Nanci Griffith

cappo on 2nd G i’ve been walkin’ in my sleep Em C countin’ troubles ’stead of countin’ sheep G Em where the years went i can’t say C D G i just turned around and they’ve gone away G i’ve been siftin’ through the layers Em C of dusty books and faded papers G Em they tell a story i used to know C D G and it was one that happened so long ago G it’s gone away in yesterday Em C now i find myself on the moutainside G Em where the rivers change direction D G across the great divide G now , i hear the owl A - callin’ Em C softly as the night was fallin’ G Em with a question and i replied C D G but he’s gone across the borderline G he’s gone away in yesterday Em C now i find myself on the moutainside G Em where the rivers change direction D G across the great divide G the finest hour that i have seen Em C is the one that comes between G Em the edge of night and the break of day C D G it’s when the darkness rolls away G it’s gone away in yesterday Em C now i find myself on the moutainside G Em where the rivers change direction D G across the great divide G it’s gone away in yesterday Em C now i find myself on the moutainside G Em where the rivers change direction D G across the great divide
