G C G C
How many roads must a man walk down
G C D
Before he's called a man

Tell me, how many seas must a white dove sail
G C D
Before she sleeps in the sand?
G C G C
Tell me, how many times must the cannonballs fly
G C D
Before they're forever banned?
C D G Em
No, the answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
C D G D#
The answer, blowing in the wind
[Verse modulation]

Before he sees the sky

Tell me, how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry
What I wanna know is

How many deaths will it take 'til he knows
