       F7			                                        Bb7        F7 
Oh, where have you been, my blue eyed son? 
      F7                                           Bb7               C7 
Where have you been, my darling young one? 
       Bb7                                               C7                F7 
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains 
      Bb7                                                      C7                F7 
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways 
      Bb7                                            C7                F7 
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests 
        Bb7                                      C7                F7 
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans 
            F7                               C7                    F7                    Bb7 
And it's a hard,     and it's a hard,    it's a hard,   and it's a hard 
             F7                     C7           F7 
And it's a hard rain's      gonna fall 

F7  (x 4 bars) 
      F7		                                Bb7        F7 
Oh, what did you see, my blue eyed son? 
      F7                                     Bb7             C7 
What did you see, my darling young one? 
        Bb7                                             C7                F7 
I saw a black branch with blood that kept dripping 
        Bb7                                                  C7                F7 
I saw a room full of men with their hammers bleeding 
        Bb7                                     C7           F7 
I saw a white ladder all covered with water 
        Bb7                                                          C7                   F7 
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken 
                      F7                     C7                    F7                       Bb7 
And it's a hard,     and it's a hard,    it's a hard,   ohhh  it's a hard 
             F7                     C7           F7 
And it's a hard rain's        gonna fall  

F7  (x 4 bars) 
      F7                                              Bb7             F7 
Tell me what did you hear, my blue eyed son? 
      F7                                      Bb7              C7 
What did you hear, my darling young one? 
        Bb7                                                                   C7                F7      
I heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazing 
        Bb7                                             C7             F7    
Ten thousand whispering and nobody listening 
        Bb7                                                        C7                F7     
I heard one person starve, I heard many people laughing 
        Bb7                                              C7            F7      
I heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter 
                  F7                        C7                      F7                       Bb7 
And it's a hard,     and it's a hard,    it's a hard,   ohhh  it's a hard 
             F7                     C7           F7 
And it's a hard rain's        gonna fall  

F7  (x 4 bars)   
     F7                                            Bb7             F7 
Well, what'll you do now, my blue eyed son? 
      F7                                        Bb7              C7 
What'll you do now, my darling young one? 
        Bb7                                                    C7               F7    
Well I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest 
        Bb7                                                          C7                 F7   
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty 
        Bb7                                                    C7                F7  
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters 
        Bb7                                                C7             F7    
 Where hunger is ugly, and the souls are forgotten      
                           F7                     C7                    F7                  Bb7 
And it's a hard,     and it's a hard,    it's a hard,   ohhh  it's a hard 
             F7                     C7           F7 
And it's a hard rain's        gonna fall  

F7 (many bars fadig)
