Great Divide

(Curly Putman)

George Jones & Tammy Wynette



I guess we've walked a million miles together hand in hand

We'd climb steep Rocky Mountains a happy woman a happy man

We'd thought our love would go on forever side by side

But here we stand like strangers at the great divide.



We've loved our way to the top of life the rest was all down hill

The rough times seem behind us and our dreams were all fulfilled

But we found out sometimes love grows old and I think our love just died

But here we stand like strangers at the great divide.



Now you'll take a high road I will take the low

But who'll take the baby cause we both love her so

Divorce is not the answer now but we've got too much pride

So here we stand like strangers at the great divide.



So here we stand like strangers at the great divide...
