D G D
Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
D | A | Asus4 | A |
And where have you been, my darling young one?
G D
I’ve stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
G D
I’ve walked and I’ve crawled on six crooked highways
G D
Stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
G D
I’ve been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
G D
Been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard
D A D G
And it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
D A | D | % | % | % |
It’s a hard rain gonna fall
[Verse 2]
D G D
Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
D A
And what did you see, my darling young one?
G D
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
G D
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
G D
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin’
G D
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin’
G D
I saw a white ladder all covered with water
G D
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
D A D G
And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
D A | D | % | % | % |
And it’s a hard rain's gonna fall
[Verse 3]
D G D
What did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
D | A | Asus4 | A |
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
G D
I heard the sound of a thunder that roared out a warnin’
G D
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
G D
I heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin’
G D
Heard ten thousand whisperin’ and nobody listenin’
G D
I heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin’
G D
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
D A D G
And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard

D A
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
G D | D Dsus2 | D | % |
I met a young child beside a dead pony
G D
I met a white man who walked a black dog
G D
I met a young woman whose body was burning
G D
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
G D
I met one man who was wounded in love
G D
I met another man who was wounded in hatred
D A D G
It’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard

D G D
And what’ll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
D | A | Asus4 | A | Asus4 |
And what’ll you do now, my darling young one?
G D
I’m goin’ back out ’fore the rain starts a-fallin’
G D
I’ll walk to the depths of the deepest dark forest
G D
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
G D
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
G D
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
G D | D Dsus2 | D | % |
The executioner’s face is always well hidden
G D
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
G D | D Dsus2 | D |
Where black is the color and none is the number
G D
And I’ll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
G D | D Dsus2 | D | % |
Reflect from the mountain so all souls can see it
G D
Then I’ll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin’
G D
But I know my song well before I start singin’
D A D G
And it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard, it’s a hard
D A | D | % |
It’s a hard rain gonna fall
