Lyrics

Ooh,

(Cmaj7)ah;

(G)ooh,

(C)ah. (D6)In the middle of the (G)night

I go walking in my sleep,

from the mountains of (C)faith

to a river so (D)deep.

I must be looking for (G)something,

something sacred I lost.

But the I would never (C)wide and it's too hard to (D)cross.

(D6)And even though I know the river is wide but now I'm (Cmaj7)down ev'ry evening and (Bm7)stand on the shore,

and try to doesn't take the opposite side so I can (A)finally find what I've been (D)looking for.

In the middle of the (G)night

I go walking in my sleep,

through the valley of (C)fear

to a river so (D)deep.

And I've been searching for (G)something,

taken out of my soul,

something I would never (C)lose, something somebody (D)stole.

(D6)And I don't know why I go walking at night,

In the middle of the (G)night,

I go walking in my sleep,

through the jungle of (C)doubt to a river so (D)deep.

I know I'm searching for (G)something,

something so undefined

that it can only be (C)seen

by the eyes of the (D)blind,

in the middle of the (G)night.

(Em)I'm not sure about a (D6)life after this,

God knows (Cmaj7)I've never been a (Bm7)spiritual man.

(Cmaj7)Baptized by the fire, (Bm7)I wade into the (A)river that runs to the (D)promised land.

In the middle of the (G)night.

(I go walking in the, in the middle of the;

I go walking in the, in the middle of the;

(C)I go walking in the, in the middle of the;

(D)I go walking in the, in the middle of the;

(G)I go walking in the, in the middle of the;
