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