The Great Divide Tammy Wynette and George Jones (Curly Putnam) Album: It Sure Was Good 1972 ÊSony Music A 32379 I guess we've walked a million miles Together, hand in hand We've climbed steep rocky mountains A happy woman, a happy man We 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 seemed 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 Chorus: Now you take the high road And Lord, I'll take the low But who'd 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
