Intro:
MI       LA  MI

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

    MI                   LA        MI
Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
                                       SI
And what did you see, my darling young one?
        LA                  SI             MI
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
        LA                       SI     MI
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
  LA                      SI              MI
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'
        LA      
I saw a room full of men 
           SI        MI
with their hammers a-bleedin'
  LA                     SI           MI
I saw a white ladder all covered with water
      LA
I saw ten thousand talkers 
      SI               MI
whose tongues were all broken
      LA
I saw guns and sharp swords 
       SI             MI
in the hands of young children
                        SI
And it's a hard, it's a hard, 
       MI               LA
it's a hard, and it's a hard
       MI        SI        MI      LA  MI
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall

    MI                    LA        MI
And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
                                        SI
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
            LA
I heard the sound of a thunder, 
     SI           MI
that roared out a warnin'
            LA
I heard the roar of a wave 
           SI              MI
that could drown the whole world
        LA
I heard one hundred drummers 
      SI           MI
whose hands were a-blazin'
        LA                          SI     MI
I heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'
        LA
I heard one person starve, 
        SI          MI
I heard many people laughin'
          LA                 SI          MI
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
          LA                   SI           MI
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
                        SI
And it's a hard, it's a hard, 
       MI           LA
it's a hard, it's a hard
       MI       SI         MI     LA  MI
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall

    MI                    LA        MI
Oh, what did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
                                   SI
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
  LA                  SI          MI
I met a young child beside a dead pony
  LA                  SI             MI
I met a white man who walked a black dog
  LA                      SI       MI
I met a young woman whose body was burning
  LA                    SI        MI
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
  LA                  SI         MI
I met one man who was wounded in love
  LA                      SI         MI
I met another man who was wounded in hatred
                        SI
And it's a hard, it's a hard, 
       MI           LA
it's a hard, it's a hard
       MI       SI         MI     LA  MI
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall

    MI                     LA        MI
And what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
                                         SI
And what'll you do now, my darling young one?
      LA                       SI            MI
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'
     LA                        SI           MI
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest dark forest
          LA
Where the people are many 
          SI            MI
and their hands are all empty
          LA
Where the pellets of poison 
    SI             MI
are flooding their waters
          LA
Where the home in the valley 
          SI         MI
meets the damp dirty prison
        LA                    SI          MI
And the executioner's face is always well hidden
      LA                    SI           MI
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
      LA                        SI          MI
Where black is the color, where none is the number
         LA  
And I'll tell and speak it 
    SI           MI
and think it and breathe it
      LA 
And reflect from the mountain 
   SI            MI
so all souls can see it
         LA                   SI          MI
And I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin'
         LA                     SI        MI
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
                        SI
And it's a hard, it's a hard, 
       MI               LA
it's a hard, and it's a hard
       MI       SI         MI   LA   MI
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall

A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall è un brano scritto e interprertato da Robert Allen Zimmerman, al secolo Bob Dylan, contenuto nell'album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan pubblicato nel 1963. Si tratta del suo primo disco interamente autocomposto, un'autentica pietra miliare del folk-rock mondiale. La canzone è il brano di chiusura del lato A, un pezzo di alto livello poetico che denuncia la folle corsa agli armamenti nucleari; eravamo allora in piena crisi missilistica!
