A        D            A        F#m
How many roads must a man walk down

  A            D          A
Before you can call him a man?

A        D           A          F#m
How many seas must a white dove sail

  A         D            E
Before she sleeps in the sand?

      A        D              A            F#m
Yes’n how many times must the cannon balls fly

  A               D    A
Before they're forever banned?
[Chorus]
    D         E         A              F#m
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

    D         E              A
The answer is blowing in the wind
[Verse 2]
A        D            A        F#m
How many times must a man look up

  A           D       A
Before he can see the sky?

A        D         A       F#m
How many ears must one man have

  A           D           E7
Before he can hear people cry?

      A        D              A            F#m
Yes’n how many deaths will it take till he knows

     A        D            A
That too many people have died?
[Chorus]
    D         E         A              F#m
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

    D         E              A
The answer is blowing in the wind
[Verse 3]
A        D           E         F#m
How many years can a mountain exist

  A          D             A
Before it is washed to the seas? (sea)

A        D                      F#m
How many years can some people exist

  A              D           E7
Before they're allowed to be free?

A        D           A            F#m
How many times can a man turn his head

   A            D            A
Pretend that he just doesn't see? (see)
[Chorus]
    D         E         A              F#m
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

    D         E              A
The answer is blowing in the wind (fast fade out)
