The River of Dreams
Billy Joel

                     G                        G
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep
                      C                   D
from the mountains of faith to a 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 thought I knew the river is wide
            C                   Am
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore
Em                      D
And 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
And I've been searching for something taken away of my soul
                        C                       D
Something I would 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 a 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 a blind

                     G
In the middle of the night


Em                            D
I'm not sure about life after this
          C                 Am
god knows I've never been a spiritual man
Em                      Am
Babtized by the fire, I wade into the river
     Am              D
That turns to be 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 a river so deep
                      G                         G
We're 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


Enjoy!
