G                       C               G 
Bad News, bad news, has come to where I sleep 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
       G                       C           (walk down bass to Am) 
Saying one of my friends is in trouble deep 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


G                            C          G 
Tell me the trouble, tell me once to my ears 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
       G                       C           (walk down bass to Am) 
Joliet Prison for ninety-nine years 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


  G                            C          G 
A crash on the highway threw a car into a field 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
           G                      C                 (walk down bass to Am) 
There were four people killed and he was at the wheel 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


      G                     C           G 
But I know him as well as I know my own self 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
       G                           C                    (walk down bass to Am) 
And he wouldn't harm a life that belonged to someone else 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


      G                    C                          G 
"That may be so," said the judge from the side of his mouth 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
        G                   C                   (walk down bass to Am) 
But the witness who saw it, he left little doubt 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, to the wind and the rain 


   G                  C               G 
He may, he may have a sentence for to serve 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
    G                         C               (walk down bass to Am) 
But ninety-nine years he just does not deserve 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


    G                       C          G 
Too late, too late, for his case it is sealed 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
     G                           C                 (walk down bass to Am) 
His sentence it is passed and it cannot be repealed 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


    G                             C           G 
But he ain't no criminal, and his crime it is none 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
         G                          C                 (walk down bass to Am) 
And what happened to him could have happened to anyone 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


   G                     C               G 
At that the judge jerked forward and his face it did freeze 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
       G                 C                         (walk down bass to Am) 
Saying "Would you kindly leave my office now please" 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


  G                    C             G 
I squinted my eyes and I stood up so slow, 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn turn again 
     G                 C               (walk down bass to Am) 
With no other choice except for me to go 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


        G                          C               G 
Well, I walked down the hall and I heard his door slam 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
  G                             C                   (walk down bass to Am) 
I walked down the stairs, but I could not understand 
Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn to the wind and the rain 


  G                            C                     G 
I played my guitar through the night and through the day 
Am                D    Dsus  D 
Turn, turn, turn again 
        G              C                   (walk down bass to Am) 
But the only tune that my guitar would play 
    Am                C            D    Dsus  D 
Was oh, how cruel the wind and the rain
