            The River of Dreams - Billy Joel

[Chorus 1]
                     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


[Verse 1]
Em                         D
   Even though I know the river is wide
            C                   Bm
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore
C                      Bm             
   I try to cross to the opposite side
         A7                              D
So I can finally find out what I've been looking for


[Chorus 2]
                     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


[Verse 2]
Em                    D
I don't know why I go walking at night
            C                       Bm
But now I'm tired and I don't wanna walk anymore
C                         Bm
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
        A7                        D
Until I find what it is I've been looking for


[Chorus 3]
                     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          C     D
In the middle of the night


[Verse 3]
Em                  D
   Not sure about a life after this
     C                       Bm
God knows I've never been a spiritual man
C               Bm                 A7
   Baptized by fire, I wade into the river
                            D
That is runnin' through the promised land


[Chorus 4]
                     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 end 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
