ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER (Bob

View chords used in this chart
Am G F G Am
(play it forever)
There must be some kind of way out of here
 
Said the joker to the thief
 
There's too much confusion
 
I can't get no relief
 
Buisness men they drink my wine
 
Plowmen dig my earth
 
None would ever compromise
 
Nobody of this world
 
 
No reason to get excited
 
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 place
 
So let us stop talking falsely now
 
The hour's getting late
 
 
All along the watchtower
 
Princess kept the view
 
While all the women came and went
 
Barefoot servants too
 
Outside in the cold distance
 
A wildcat did growl
 
Two riders were approaching
 
And the wind began to howl
 
 
All along the watchtower
 
All along the watchtower
 
All along the watchtower
