_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Where have you been my brown eyed son? _ _
_ _ _ _ Where have you been my darling [E] one one? _ _
_ _ [D] I've stumbled on the side [E] of twelve [A] misty mountains _ _ _ _
[D] I've walked and I've [E] crawled on six [A] crooked _ highways
_ _ _ [D] I've stepped in the middle [E] of seven [A] sad _ forests
_ _ _ [D] I've been out in front of [E] a dozen [A] dead _ oceans _ _
I've [D] been ten thousand miles in [E] the mouth of [A] a graveyard
_ _ _ _ It's a hard, _ it's [E] a hard, it's [A] a hard, it's [D] a hard, it's [A] a hard way
_ _ [A] It's gonna fall
_ What _ _ _ did you see my brown eyed son? _ _ _ _ _ _
What did you see my [E] darling young one?
_ Saw [D] a newborn baby [E] with wolves all [A] around her _ _
I saw [D] a highway of diamonds [E] with nobody [A] on it
_ _ _ _ I [D] saw black branch with blood that kept [A] dripping
_ _ _ I [D] saw a room full of men with [E] their hammers a-bleeding _ _ _
_ _ [D] I saw a white ladder [E] all covered [A] with water _ _ _ _
I [D] saw ten thousand takers [E] whose tongues were [A] all broken
_ _ _ _ [D] I saw guns and sharp swords [E] in the hands [A] of young children _
_ _ _ It's a hard, [E] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard, [D] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard way _
[E] _ _ It's [A] gonna fall _ _
_ _ _ _ What did you hear my brown eyed son? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ What did you hear my [E] darling young one? _ _ _
I heard [D] the sound of a thunder, it's the rule [A] of the warning
_ _ _ I [D] heard the roar of a wave [E] that could drown [A] the whole world
_ _ _ [D] I heard one hundred [E] drummers whose hands [A] were ablazing _
_ _ I [D] heard ten thousand whispers [E] with [A] nobody listening _ _ _
I [D] heard one person stop, [E] I heard many [A] people laughing
I _ _ _ heard [D] the song of a poet [E] who died [A] in the barbed wire
_ _ _ I heard [D] the sound of a clown [E] who cried in [A] the alley _
_ _ _ It's a hard, [E] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard, [D] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard way _
[E] _ _ It's [A] gonna fall _ _
_ _ _ Who did you meet my brown eyed son? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Who did you meet my darling [E] young one? _ _ _
_ [D] I met a young [E] child beside [A] a dead pony _ _ _ _
[D] I met a white [E] man who walked [A] up that door
_ _ _ _ [D] I met a young woman [E] whose body [A] was burning _ _
_ _ _ [D] I met a young girl, [E] she gave [A] me a rainbow _ _ _
_ [D] I met one man who [E] was wounded [A] in love
_ _ _ _ I met [D] another man who [E] was wounded [A] with hatred
_ _ _ _ It's a hard, [E] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard, [D] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard _ _ [E] way
It's [A] gonna fall
_ _ _ _ _ _ What do we do now my brown eyed son?
_ _ _ _ _ _ What do we do now my [E] darling young one?
_ _ _ [D] I'm not going back out before the rain [A] starts to fall in _
_ _ [D] I'll walk to the depths of the [A] deepest black _ forest _ _
[D] Where the people are [E] many and their [A] hands are all empty
_ _ _ [D] Where the pellets of [E] poison are [A] flooding their waters _
_ _ _ [D] Where the home in the valley [E] meets the [A] damp dirty prison _ _ _
Where [D] the _ executioner's [E] face is always [A] well hidden
_ _ _ Where [D] the hunger is ugly, [E] where souls [A] are forgotten
_ _ _ _ _ [D] Where black is the color, [E] where none [A] is the number _
_ _ _ [D] And I'll tell it and think [E] it and speak [A] it and breathe _ it _
And [D] reflect it from the [E] mountains so all [A] souls can hear it
_ And [D] I'll stand on the ocean [E] until I [A] start sinking
_ _ _ And [D] I know my songs well [E] before I [A] start _ singing
_ _ It's a hard, [E] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard, [D] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard _ _
[E] way
_ [A] There's a falling _
_ _ _ It's a hard, [E] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard, [D] it's a hard, [A] it's a hard [E] way
_ _ [A] There's a falling _
