[Eb]
Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Where have you been, my darling [Bb] young one?
[Ab] I've stumbled on the [Eb] side of treacherous mountains
[Ab] Walked and I crawled [Eb] on six crooked highways
[Ab] Stepped in the middle [Eb] of seven sad forests
[Ab] Been out in front [Eb] of a dozen dead oceans
[Ab] I've been ten thousand miles [Eb] in the mouth of a graveyard
But it's a hard, hard, and it's [Bb] a hard, hard, [Eb] and it's a hard, hard, [Ab] and it's a hard, hard, [Eb] and it's a hard [Bb] rain
I'm gonna [Ab] fall, [Eb] fall
Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
What did you see, my darling [Bb] young one?
[Ebm] [Bbm] I saw [Ab] a newborn baby [Eb] with white-wooled ground
[Ab] I saw a highway of diamonds [Eb] with nobody on it
[Ab] Saw a black ranch [Eb] with blood that kept dripping
[Ab] Saw a room full of men [Eb] with their hammers and [Ab] bleeding
A wide ladder [Eb] all covered with water
[Ab] I saw ten thousand [Eb] doggers whose tongues were all broken
[Ab] I saw guns and sharp [Eb] swords in the hands of young children
And it's a hard, hard, and [Bb] it's a hard, hard, and [Eb] it's a hard, hard, [Ab] [Eb] and it's a [Bb] hard rain
I'm gonna [Ab] fall, [Eb] fall
Oh, what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
What did you hear, my darling [Bb] young one?
I [Ab] heard the sound of a thunder [Eb] that brought out a warning
[Ab] I heard the roar of a wave [Eb] that could drown the whole world
[Ab] I heard one hundred drummers [Eb] whose hands were ablaze
I [Ab] heard ten mouths whispering [Eb] and nobody listening
[Ab] I heard one person starve [Eb] and ten people laughing
[Abm] I heard the song of a poet [Eb] who died in the gutter
[Ab] I heard the sound of a clown [Eb] who cried in the alley
And it's a hard, hard, and it's [Bb] a hard, hard, [Eb] and it's a hard, [Ab] hard, [Eb]
hard [Bb] rain
I'm [Ab] gonna fall, [Eb] fall
Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling [Bb] young one?
I [Ab] met a young child [Eb] beside a dead pony
[Ab] I met one man [Eb] who walked a black dog
[Ab] Met a young [Eb] girl whose body was burning
[Ab] A young girl, [Eb] she gave me a rainbow
[Ab] I met one man [Eb] who was wounded in love
[Ab]
Another [Eb] man who was wounded with hatred
And it's a hard, [Bb] hard, and it's a hard, hard, [Eb] and it's a [Ab] hard, [Eb]
hard, [Bb] hard rain
I'm gonna [Ab] fall, [Eb] fall
Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
What'll you do now, my darling [Bb] young one?
[Ab] I'm going back out [Eb] for the rain's not falling
[Ab] Walk through the depths of [Eb] the deepest black forest
Where [Ab] the people are [Eb] many and their hands [Ebm] are all empty
[Ab] Where pellets of poison are [Eb] flooding their waters
[Ab] Where the home in the valley meets [Eb] the death-burning prison
Where [Abm]
executioner's face [Eb] is always well hidden
[Ab] Where hunger is [Eb] everywhere, souls are forgotten
Where [Ab] black is the colour and [Eb] blonde is the number
[Abm] And [Bb] I held it down, and I [Ebm] danced, kicked it, and weaved it
And [Ab] reflected on the rocks so [Eb] I'd slowly see it
Then [Ab] I'd stand in the ocean [Eb] until I stopped sinking
[Ab] The blue-eyed son fell [Eb] before I stopped singing
And it's a hard, hard, and it's [Bb] a hard, [Eb]
hard, [Ab] and [Eb] it's a hard, hard, and it's a [Bb] hard, hard rain
I'm [Ab] gonna fall,
