 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?

Tell me, how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry
What I wanna know is

How many years can a mountain exist

Before it's washed out to the sea

Tell me, how many years can people exist

   A              D            E
Before they are allowed to be free
What I wanna know is

How many times can a man turn his head

 A                  D            E
Pretending that he just doesn't see

          D          E       A             F#m
Oh, the answer, my friend, blowing in whe wind

The answer, somewhere in the wind

Oh, that answer is somewhere in the wind!
