[Verse 1]
G        C            G        Em
How many roads must a man walk down
  G        C          D
Before you call him a man?
G        C           G          Em
How many seas must a white dove sail
  G        C             D
Before she sleeps in the sand?
G        C              G           Em
How many times must the cannonballs fly
  G            C       D
Before they're forever banned?


[Chorus]
    C         D          G              Em
The answer my friends is blowing in the wind
    C         D              G
The answer is blowing in the wind


[Verse 2]
G        C           G          Em
How many years can a mountain exist
  G         C             D
Before it's washed to the sea?
G        C               G        Em
How many years must some people exist
  G              C           D
Before they're allowed to be free?
    G        C           G            Em
And how many times can a man turn his head
       G            C            D
And pretend that he just doesn't see?


[Chorus]
    C         D          G              Em
The answer my friends is blowing in the wind
    C         D              G
The answer is blowing in the wind


[Verse 3]
G        C          G        Em
How many time can a man look up
  G       C        D
Before he sees the sky?
G        C         G       Em
How many ears must one man have
  G           C           D
Before he can hear people cry?
    G        C              G            Em
And how many deaths will it take 'til he knows
     G        C           D
That too many people have died?


[Chorus]
    C         D          G              Em
The answer my friends is blowing in the wind
    C         D              G
The answer is blowing in the wind
