[Gm]
[G]
Oh, [C]
[D] [G] I'm
[C]
[D] in the middle [G] of the night, [C] [G] I'm walking in my sleep, from the mountains [C] of faith,
to [Em] the river [D] so deep, I must be looking [G] for something, [Am] something sacred [G] I long for,
but the river [C] is wide, and [Em] it's too [D] hard to cross.
[Em] Even though I [G] know the river is wide, I [C] walk down every evening [G] and stand up short,
[C] I try and cross [G] to the opposite side, so [A] I can finally find what [D] I've been looking for.
In the middle [G] of the night, I go walking in my sleep, through the valley [C] of fear, [Em] to a river [D] so deep,
[G] I'm in search of something, [Am] taken out of [G] my soul, something I'd [C] never lose, something [D] somebody stole.
[Em] I don't know why [D] I go walking [G] at night, [C] but now I'm tired and I don't [G] want to walk anymore,
[C] I hope I don't [G] stink the rest of my life [A] until I find what it is [D] I've been looking for.
[G] In the middle of the night, I go walking in my sleep, through the [C] jungle of doubt, [Em] to the river [D] so deep,
[G] I know I'm searching for something, something so [Em] undefined, [G] that it can only [C] be seen by the [D] eyes of blind.
In the [G] middle of the night.
[C]
[D] [G] Not sure
[C] [Bm]
[Am] [Em] [G] about life after [C] this, God knows I've never [G] been a spiritual [Em] man,
that's how [Bm] far I've [A] waded to the river that is [D] running through the promised land.
[G] In the middle of the night, I go walking in my sleep, through the [C] desert of truth, to the [D] river so deep,
[C] we all [G] end in the ocean, we all start in the streams, we're all [C] carrying a lot [D] of dreams.
In the [G] middle of the night.
[A] [G#m] [C] [G]
In [C] [C#] [G] [C] [D] the [G] middle of the night.
In the [C] middle of the night.
In the middle of [D] the night.
In the [G] middle of the night.
In the middle of the night.
In
