x 4, with oooh, ahh

GIn the middle of (I go walking in)

In the middle of (I go G9walking in)

CIn the middle of (I go Cmaj7walking in)

DIn the middle of (I go walking in)

In the middle of the Gnight

I go walking in my sleep

From the G7mountains of Cfaith

To the Cmaj7river so Ddeep

I must be looking for Gsomething

Something sacred I lost

But the G7river is Cwide

And it’s Cmaj7too hard to Dcross

EmAnd even though I know the Gmaj7river is wide

I walk Cmaj7down every evening and Gstand on the shore

Cmaj7I try to cross to the Gmaj7opposite side

So I can A7finally find out what I’ve been Dlooking for

In the middle of the Gnight

I go walking in my sleep

Through the G7valley of Cfear

To a Cmaj7river so Ddeep

I’ve been searching for Gsomething

Taken out of my soul

Something G7I could never Close

Something Cmaj7somebody Dstole

I Emdon’t know why I go Gmaj7walking at night

But now I’m Cmaj7tired and I don’t want to Gwalk anymore

I Cmaj7hope it doesn’t take the Gmaj7rest of my life

Until I A7find what it is I’ve been Dlooking for

Hang for 1 measure

In the middle of the Gnight

I go walking in my sleep

Through the G7jungle of Cdoubt

To the Cmaj7river so Ddeep

I know I’m Gsearching for something

Something so undefined

That it can G7only be Cseen

By the Cmaj7eyes of the Dblind

In the middle of the Gnight

Note the lyrics are reversed wrt the intro

GI go walking in the, in the middle of the

I go walking in the, in the G7middle of the

CI go walking in the, in the Cmaj7middle of the

DI go walking in the, in the middle of the

GI go walking in the, in the middle of the

I go walking in the, in the G7middle of the

CI go walking in the, in the Cmaj7middle of the

DI go walking in the, in the middle of the

EmI’m not sure about a Gmaj7life after this

God Cmaj7knows I’ve never been a Gspiritual man

Cmaj7Baptized by the Gmaj7fire

I wade into the Ariver that is running through the Dpromised land

Hang for 1 meaure and 2 extra beats

In the middle of the Gnight

I go walking in my sleep

Through the G7desert of Ctruth

To the Cmaj7river so Ddeep

We all end in the Gocean

We all start in the streams

We’re all G7carried aClong

By the Cmaj7river of Ddreams

In the middle of the Gnight

I go walking in the, in the middle of the

I go walking in the, in the G7middle of the

CI go walking in the, in the Cmaj7middle of the

DI go walking in the, in the middle of the
