All Along the Watchtower

"There must be some way out of here"   
  6    6  -6 6  -6  6   -6 
said the joker to the thief
   6     -6   -6  -6  7  6      
"There's too much confusion",
6 -6    -6  -6 6  -6
I can't get no relief
 -8   7  -8    7    -8   -6 7 -8      
Business men, they drink my wine,   
 -6 -6    7  -6  -6
plowmen dig my earth
 -8   7  -8  7 -8  -6  8 -8      
None of them along the line   
 -6   -6  7 7 6  -6 6   -6
know what any of it is worth.

 -8 -8  7  -8 -8  7 -8 -6     
"No reason to get excited",   
 6   -6   6  -6  6   7 -6
the thief he kindly spoke
  -6   -6  7 -6 -6   6  6  -6   
"There are many here among us   
 6   -6   6   -6   6  -6  6  -6
who feel that life is but a joke
-8  -8   7 -8   7    -8     -6     7      
But you and I, we've been through that,   
-6   7   -6 -6  -6  -6
and this is not our fate
-6 -6  -6 -6   -6   7  6   -6      
So let us not talk falsely now,   
 6   -6  -6 -6  6    -6
the hour is getting late".

-8  -8 -8 7   -8  -6  -6   
All along the watchtower,   
-6  -6  -6   6    -6
princes kept the view
 -6   -6 -6   -6 -6  -6   6  -6     
While all the women came and went,   
 -6  -6    7   6    -6
barefoot servants, too.

  -8    -8 -8  7 -8 -6     
Outside in the distance    
6 -6  -6   6   -6
a wildcat did growl
 -8  -8 7   -8   7  -8  -6     
Two riders were approaching,   
 6   -6  -6 -6 6   -6
the wind began to howl.
