	I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains						I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
	I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways						I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways

	I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests						I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
	I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans						I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
	I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard						I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard

	I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'						I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'
	I saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin'						I saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin'
3							I saw a white ladder all covered with water	3
	I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken						I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
	I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children						I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
3							And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard	3

	Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world						Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
4							Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazin'	4
5							Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'	5
6							Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin'	6
7							Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter	7
8							Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley	8
9							And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard	9
10							And it's a hard rain's a gonna fall	10
