How many roads must a man walk down before you can call him a
man ? Yes n how many seas must a white dove sail before she
sleeps in the sand Yes n ahow many times must the cannon
balls fly before they're forever banned
Chorus
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind the answer is
blowing in the wind
How many times must a man look up before he can see the sky
Yes n how many ears must one man have before he can hear
people cry Yes n how many deaths will it take till he know
that too many people have died
Chorus
How many years can a mountain exist before its washed to the
sea Yes n how many years can some people exist before
they're allowed to be free? Yes n how many times can a man
turn his head pretending he just didnt see?
Chorus
slowly
The answer is blowing in the wind
(yup here it is!)
Blowing in the wind Bob Dylan

Before you can call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
And how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they've forever banned?

BLOWIN' IN THE WIND by Bob Dylan
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they are forever banned?
The answer my friend
Is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many times must a man look up Before he can see the sky? Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have Before he can hear people cry? Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows That too many people have died?
How many years can a mountain exist Before it is washed to the sea? Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head Pretending he just doesn't see?
The chord files available on the web for this song that I have seen are not quite accurate. There is a little descending melody line played primarily on the D string that echoes the vocal. To get this it has to be played capoed at the 2nd fret, as is the recorded version on "Frewheelin'".
Just listen to the record to get the alternate bass picking right. Another deceptively simple, but incredibly powerful Dylan song.
