[Chorus 1 - to make chords more interesting can go from G to C, C to Dm7 and D to Em7 figure] In the middle of the [G] night I go walking in my [G] sleep From the mountains of [C] faith to the river so [D] deep I must be looking for [G] something, something sacred I [G] lost But the river is [C] wide and it's too hard to [D] cross
[Verse 1] [Em] Even though I know the [D] river is wide I walk down [C] every evening and I [Bm] stand on the shore [C] I try to cross to [Bm] the opposite side So I can [A7] finally find out what I've been [D] looking for (run down - x7777x x6777x x5777x x3555x x5777x)

[Verse 3] [Em] Not sure about a [D] life after this God [C] knows I've never been a [Bm] spiritual man [C] Baptized by [Bm] fire, I wade into the [A7] river That is runnin' through the [D] promised land (run down)
[Double Pause] [Chorus 4] In the middle of the [G] night I go walking in my [G] sleep Through the desert of [C] truth to the river so [D] deep We all end in the [G] ocean, we all start in the [G] streams We're all carried a [C] long by the river of [D] dreams In the middle of the [G] night
[Backing vocal part - NO CHORDS TO BEGIN WITH - PERHAPS JUST BASS THEN CHORDS BACK IN] [G]in the middle of the, I go walking in the [G]in the middle of the, I go walking in the [C]valley of faith [D]river so deep
