Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?.
And where have you been, my darling [B] young one?
.
[A] I've stumbled on the [B] side of [E] twelve misty mountains.
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways.
I've stepped in the middle of seven-sided forests.
.
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans.
I've [A] been ten thousand miles [E] in the mouth of a graveyard.
And it's a hard, [B] it's a hard, [E] it's a hard, it's [A] a hard,.
[E] it's a hard rain [B] .
[E] that's gonna fall.

[E] Saw [A] a newborn baby [E] with wild wolves all around it.

I saw [A] a black branch [B] with blood [E] that kept dripping.

Saw a room [A] full of men with [B] their [E] hammers bleeding.
I [A] saw a white ladder [E] all covered with water.
.
I saw [A] ten thousand [E] talkers whose tongues were all broken.
.
Saw gunshots, swords in the hands of young children.
And it's a hard, [B] it's a hard, [E] it's a hard, [A] and it's a hard,.
[E] it's a hard rain [B] [E] that's gonna fall.
.
.
Oh, what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
.
And what did you hear, my darling [B] young one?.
I [E] heard the [A] sound of a thunder [B] that [E] roared out a warning.
.
[A] I heard the roar of a wave [E] that could drown the whole world.
.
I [A] heard one hundred drummers [E] whose hands were ablazing.
I heard [A] ten thousand [E] whispering and nobody listening.

I heard [A] one person [E] starve.
I heard many people laughing.
I heard the [A] song of a poet [E] who died in the gutter.
I heard [A] the sound of a clown who [E] cried in the alley.
And it's a hard, [B] it's a hard, [E] it's a hard, it's a [A] hard,.
[E] it's a hard rain [B] .
[E] that's gonna fall.

And what will you do now, my blue-eyed son?
.
And what will you do now, my darling [B] young one?.
[E] I'm a [A]-going back out [E] before the rain starts a-fallin'.
.
I'll [A] walk to the [E] depths of the deepest dark forest .
where the [A] people are many [E] and their hands are all empty,.
where the pellets [A] of poison [E] are flooding their waters, .
where the [A] home in the valley [E] meets the damp, dirty prison, .
and the executioner's face is always well hidden.
Where hunger [A] is [E] ugly, where the soul's are forgotten, .
where [A] black is the [E] color, where none is the number.
.
And I'll tell it and speak it [B] and think [E] it and breathe it.
and reflect from [A] the [E] mountains so all souls can see it.
