[F][Bb][F] Oh, [F]where have you been, my [Bb]blue-eyed [F]son? And [F]where have you been, my darling young [C]one? I've [Bb]stumbled on the side of [C]twelve misty [F]mountains, I've [Bb]walked and I've crawled on [C]six crooked [F]highways, I've [Bb]stepped in the middle of [C]seven sad [F]forests, I've [Bb]been out in front of a [C]dozen dead [F]oceans, I've been [Bb]ten thousand miles in the [C]mouth of a [F]graveyard,
And it's a [F]hard, and it's a [C]hard, it's a [F]hard, and it's a [Bb]hard, And it's a [F]hard rai-[C]-ain's a-gonna [F]fall [Bb][F]
Oh, [F]what did you see, my [Bb]blue-eyed [F]son? Oh, [F]what did you see, my darling young [C]one? I saw a [Bb]newborn babe with [C]wild wolves all a-[F]round it I saw a [Bb]highway of diamonds with [C]nobody [F]on it, I [Bb]saw a black branch with [C]blood that kept [F]drippin', I saw a [Bb]room full of men with their [C]hammers a[F]bleedin', I [Bb]saw a white ladder all [C]covered with [F]water, I saw [Bb]ten thousand talkers whose [C]tongues were all [F]broken, I saw [Bb]guns and sharp swords in the [C]hands of young [F]children,
And it's a [F]hard, and it's a [C]hard, it's a [F]hard, and it's a [Bb]hard, And it's a [F]hard rai-[C]-ain's a-gonna [F]fall [Bb][F]
And [F]what did you hear, my [Bb]blue-eyed [F]son? And [F]what did you hear, my darling young [C]one? I heard the [Bb]sound of a thunder, it [C]roared out a [F]warnin', Heard the [Bb]roar of a wave that could [C]drown the whole [F]world, Heard [Bb]one hundred drummers, their [C]hands were a[F]-blazin', Heard [Bb]ten thousand whisperin' and [C]nobody [F]listenin', Heard [Bb]one person starve, I heard [C]many people [F]laughin', Heard the [Bb]song of a poet who [C]died in the [F]gutter, Heard the [Bb]sounds of a clown who [C]cried in the [F]alley, Heard the [Bb]sound of one person who [C]said he was [F]human,
And it's a [F]hard, and it's a [C]hard, it's a [F]hard, and it's a [Bb]hard, And it's a [F]hard rai-[C]-ain's a-gonna [F]fall [Bb][F]
Oh, [F]who did you meet, my [Bb]blue-eyed [F]son? [F]Who did you meet, my darling young [C]one? I [Bb]met a young child be-[C]side a dead [F]pony, I [Bb]met a white man who [C]walked a black [F]dog, I [Bb]met a woman whose [C]body was [F]burning, I [Bb]met a young girl, she [C]gave me a [F]rainbow, I [Bb]met one man who was [C]wounded in [F]love, I [Bb]met another man who was [C]wounded in hatred,
And it's a [F]hard, and it's a [C]hard, it's a [F]hard, and it's a [Bb]hard, And it's a [F]hard rai-[C]-ain's a-gonna [F]fall [Bb][F]
And [F]what'll you do now, my [Bb]blue-eyed [F]son? Oh, [F]what'll you do now, my darling young [C]one? I'm a-[Bb]goin' back out 'fore the [C]rain starts a-[F]fallin', I'll [Bb]walk to the depths of the [C]deepest black [F]forest, Where the [Bb]people are many and their [C]hands are all [F]empty, Where the [Bb]pellets of poison are [C]flooding their [F]waters, Where the [Bb]home in the valley meets the [C]damp dirty [F]prison, Where the [Bb]executioner's face is [C]always well [F]hidden, Where [Bb]hunger is ugly, where [C]souls are for-[F]gotten, Where [Bb]black is the color, where [C]none is the [F]number, And I'll [Bb]tell it and think it and [C]speak it and [F]breathe it, And re-[Bb]flect from the mountain so [C]all souls can [F]see it, Then I'll [Bb]stand on the ocean un-[C]til I start [F]sinkin', But I'll [Bb]know my song well be-[C]fore I start [F]singin',
And it's a [F]hard, and it's a [C]hard, it's a [F]hard, and it's a [Bb]hard, And it's a [F]hard rai-[C]-ain's a-gonna [F]fall [Bb][F]
