[Verse 1]
[D]Oh, where have you been,
my [G]blue [D]-eyed son?
Where have you been,
my darling [G]young one?
I've stumbled on the side
of [D]twelve misty mountains
I've [G]walked and I've crawled
on [D]six crooked highways
I've [G]stepped in the middle
of sev[D]en sad forests
I've [G]been out in front of a
[D]dozen dead oceans
There's [G]been 10 ,000 miles
in the mouth [D]of the graveyard
And it's a hard, it's [G]a hard,
it's a [D]hard, it's [G]a hard,
it's a [D]hard [G]rain's[Asus4]
[G]gonna fal[D]l[G][D]
Oh, what did you see,
my blue -eyed son?
What did you see,
my darling young [Asus4]one?
[G]Saw a newborn babe
with wild wolves [D]all around it
Saw a [G]highway of diamonds
with nobody [D]on it
I [G]saw a black branch
with [D]blood that kept dripping
Saw a [G]room full of men
with their hammer[D]s a -bleeding
I saw [G]a white ladder all c[D]overed with water
I saw [G]ten thousand talkers
whose [D]tongues were all broken
I saw [G]guns and sharp swords
in [D]the hands of young children
It's a hard, it's [A]a hard, it's a [D]hard,
it's [G]a hard, it's a [D]hard [A]race[Asus4]
Gonna [G]fall[D][G][D]
And what did you hear,
my [G]blue -eyed [D]son?
What did you hear,
my darling young [A]one?
Heard the [G]sound of a thunder,
[D]it roared out a warning
Heard the [G]roar of a wave
that could [D]drown the whole world
Heard [G]one hundred drummers
whose [D]hands were blazing
Heard [G]ten thousand whispering
and [D]nobody listening
Heard [G]one person starve
I heard [D]many people laugh
And heard the [G]song of a poet
Who [D]died in the gutter
Heard the [G]sound of a clown
Who [D]cried in the alley
It's a heart
It's a [A]heart
It's [D]a heart
It's a [G]heart
It's [D]a hard [A]rain
Gonna [D]fall[G][D]
Who did you meet, my [G]blue -eyed [D]sun?
Who did you meet, my darling young [A]moon?
I [G]met a young child beside [D]a dead pony
I [G]met a white man who [D]walked a black dog
I met [G]a young woman
whose [D]body was burning
I [G]met a young girl, [D]she gave me a rainbow
I [G]met one man who was [D]wounded in love
I [G]met another man who
[D]was wounded with hatred
But it's a hard, it's a [A]hard, it's a [D]hard,
it's [G]a hard, it's a [D]hard [Asus4]rain[A]
[D]It's [G]gonna fall[D]
Oh, what you do now, my [G]blue [D]-eyed son?
Oh, what do you do now,
my darling young [A]one?
I'm go[G]ing back out
before the [D]rain starts falling
I'll [G]walk to the depths
of [D]the deepest black forest
Where [G]the people are many
and their [D]hands are all empty
Where the [G]pellets of poison
are [D]flooding their waters
Where the [G]home in the valley
meets [D]the damp, dirty prison
Where the [G]executioner's face
is al[D]ways well hidden
Where hun[G]ger is ugly,
[D]where souls are forgotten
Where [G]black is the color,
[D]where none is the number
And I'll [G]tell it, think it, speak [D]it,
and breathe it
[G]Reflected from the mountains
so [D]all souls can see
I'll [G]stand on the ocean
[D]until I start sinking
But I'll [G]know my song well
before [D]I start singing
It's a heart, it's [A]a heart, it's [D]a heart
[G]It's a hard, it's [D]a hard way
[A]We're gonna fal[G]l[D]
