[Ab] [F]
Tell me where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Where have you been, my [B]
[C] darlin' young one?
[Bb] I've stumbled up on the side of the [F] well-misty mountain
[Bb] I've walked and I've crawled over [F] six crooked highways
[Bb] I've stepped out in the middle [F] of the silver-stacked forest
[Bb] I've been out in front of [F] the desert and dead ocean
And I tell you it's hard, [C] yeah it's hard, yeah [F] it's hard
[Bb] Yeah, [F] it's a hard rain, [Fm] [C] it's gonna [F] fall
Tell me why did you see my blue-eyed son?
What did you see, my [B] darlin' young [C] one?
[Bb] I saw the black-branched gripping him [F] with the blood all around him
[Bb] I saw a room full of men with [F] their hammers gleaming
[Bb] I saw a white ladder [F] all covered with water
[Bb] I saw ten thousand talkers whose [F] tongues were all broken
Well, it's hard, yeah it's [C] hard, yeah it's [F] hard
Oh, [Bb]
[F] a hard rain, [C]
[F] it's gonna fall
Tell me why did you hear my blue-eyed son?
What did you hear, my [Bm]
darlin' [C] young one?
I [Bb] heard a hundred strummers' [F] hands that were blazing
[Bb] Ten thousand whispering [F] and nobody listening
[Bb] I heard a one-person song, I [F] heard many people laughing
[Bb] I heard the song of a poet [F] who died in the gutter
Well, it's hard, [C] yeah it's hard, yeah [F] it's hard
Oh, [Bb] [F] it's a hard rain, [C] it's [F] gonna fall
Well, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
What'll you do now, my [G] [C] darlin' young one?
[Bb] Well, I walked to the [F] depths of the deepest black forest
[Bb] Where the people are many [F] and their hands are all empty
[Bb] Where the pale lips of poison are [F] flooding the water
[Bb] But I know my song well [F] and I sure won't forget it
Cause it's hard, [C] yeah it's hard, [F] yeah it's hard
[Bb] Oh, yeah, [F] [C]
[F] it's gonna fall
Wah-oo-oo, wah-oo-oo, wah-oo-oo, wah-oo-oo
