<< Back to Joan Baez Song List

Version 1 Version 2

            [Intro]
Am  E7/B


[Verse 1]
Am   E7/B  Am        E7/B   Am          Dm          C    E7/B Am
On a wagon bound for market   there's a calf with a mournful  eye
Am    E7/B     Am        E7/B    Am        Dm      Am      E7  Am
High above him there's a swallow   winging swiftly through the sky


[Chorus]
G                 C        Am      G                    C     Am
How the winds are laughing,   they laugh with all their might
G                   C     E7/B Am          E                Am
Laugh and laugh the whole day  through and half the summers night

E7                Am     G                 C   Am
Donna Donna Donna Donna, Donna Donna Donna Don
E7                Am     E7                Am  E7  Am  E7
Donna Donna Donna Donna, Donna Donna Donna Don


[Verse 2]
 Am      E7/B      Am       E7/B   Am          Dm    C    E7/B Am
"Stop complaining" said the farmer,  "Who told you a calf to   be?
Am        E7/B     Am       E7/B     Am         Dm          Am    E7  Am
Why don't you have wings to fly with,  like the swallow, so proud and free?"


[Chorus]
G                 C        Am      G                    C     Am
How the winds are laughing,   they laugh with all their might
G                   C     E7/B Am          E                Am
Laugh and laugh the whole day  through and half the summers night

E7                Am     G                 C   Am
Donna Donna Donna Donna, Donna Donna Donna Don
E7                Am     E7                Am  E7  Am  E7
Donna Donna Donna Donna, Donna Donna Donna Don


[Verse 3]
Am         E7/B   Am        E7/B        Am      Dm          C  E7/B Am
Calves are easily bound and slaughtered   never knowing the reason  why
Am     E7/B  Am        E7/B    Am         Dm          Am      E7 Am
But whoever  treasures freedom   like the swallow has learned to fly


[Outro/Chorus]
G                 C        Am      G                    C     Am
How the winds are laughing,   they laugh with all their might
G                   C     E7/B Am          E                Am
Laugh and laugh the whole day  through and half the summers night

E7                Am     G                 C   Am
Donna Donna Donna Donna, Donna Donna Donna Don
E7                Am     E7                Am  E7  Am  E7 Am
Donna Donna Donna Donna, Donna Donna Donna Don
