[Verse 1]
D
Where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
                                       A
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
been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
          G                         D
I’ve been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard

[Chorus]
       D                A
It’s a hard, and it’s a hard,
           D                G
and it’s a hard, and it’s a hard
              D    A               G   G/F# G/E   D
And it’s a  hard  rain’s a-gonna fall

[Verse 2]
    D
Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
                                   A
What did you see, my darling young one?
        G                 D
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves around it
      G                        D
Saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
G                       D
Saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'
      G                           D
Saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin'
G                  D
A white ladder all covered with water
      G                          D
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
      G                            D
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
