	  		                     G                        G 
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep 
                      C                   D 
from the mountains of faith to the river so deep 
                      G                            G 
I must be looking for something something sacred I lost 
                 C                         D 
But the river is wide and it's too hard to cross 

Em                          D 
And even though I knew the river is wide 
            C                   Am 
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore 
Em                      D 
I try to cross to the opposite side 
         Am                              D 
So I can finally find out what I've been looking for 

                     G                        G 
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep 
                       C                  D 
Through the valley of fear to a river so deep 
                            G                          G 
 I've been searching for something taken out of my soul 
                        C                       D 
Something I could never lose something somebody stole 

Em                    D 
I don't know why I go walking at night 
            C                 Am 
But now I'm tired and I don't walk anymore 
Em                         D 
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life 
        Am                        D 
Until I find what it is I've been looking for 


                     G                         G 
In the middle of the night  I go walking in my sleep 
                      C                   D 
Through the jungle of doubt to the river so deep 
                         G                      G 
I know I'm searching for something something so undefined 
                    C                     D 
That it only can be seen by the eyes of the blind 

                     G 
In the middle of the night 

Piano solo 

Em                            D 
I'm not sure about life after this 
          C                 Am 
God knows I've never been a spiritual man 
Em                      Am 
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river 
     Am              D 
That is running to the promised land 

                     G                        G 
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep 
                      C                   D 
Through the desert of truth to the river so deep 
                      G                         G 
We all land in the ocean we all start in the streams 
                  C                     D 
We're all carried along by the river of dreams 

                     G 
In the middle of the night
