Am                     C           F  
There must be some way out of here 
Am       G            F  
Said the joker to the thief 
Am               F  
There's too much confusion 
Am             F  
I can't get no relief 
Am               F              G  
Businessmen they drink my wine 
Am          F  
Plowmen dig my earth 
Am      G          F  
None of them along the line 
Am                  F  
Know what any of it is worth

Am        G      F  
No reason to get excited 
Am        G         F      C        ( Am   G  F  G repeated)  
The thief he kindly spoke 
There are many here among us 
Who feel that life is but a joke 
But you and I we've been through that 
And this is not our fate 
So let us not talk falsely now 
The hour is getting late 
F             Am          F  
All along the watchtower 
All along the watchtower 
All along the watchtower

Am   G        F            
All along the watchtower              ( Am   G  F  G repeated)  
Am      G      F      G   
Princes kept the view 
While all the women came and went 
Barefoot servants too 
Outside in the distance 
A wildcat did growl 
Two riders were approaching 
The wind began to howl 
Am     G      F  
All along the watchtower 
Am        G        F     G                     
There must be some way out of here       

( Am   G  F  G repeated) 
 
F            Am             F  
All along the watchtower 
Said the joker to the thief 
All along the watchtower 
There's too much confusion 
All along the watchtower 
I can't get no relief 
All along the watchtower 
Too much confusion 
All along the watchtower
