All Along the Watchtower
Bob Dylan  1968

 Em                        C          D
“There must be some way out of here,”
 Em                   C       D
Said the joker to the thief, 
 Em                  C         D
“There’s too much confusion,
 Em               C       D
I can’t get no relief.”


 Em                C                D
“Businessmen, they drink my wine,
 Em            C          D
Plowmen dig my earth.
 Em           C              D
None of them along the line
 Em                    C         D
Know what any of it is worth.”


 Em                 C         D
“No reason to get excited,”
 Em                    C       D
The thief, he kindly spoke,
 Em                   C        D
“There are many here among us
 Em                         C      D
Who feel that life is but a joke.


 Em                  C                   D
But you and I, we’ve been through that,
 Em                  C       D
And this is not our fate,
 Em                C              D
So let us not talk falsely now, 
 Em                  C       D
The hour is getting late.”


 Em           C             D
All along the watchtower,
 Em               C        D
Princes kept the view,
 Em                 C               D
While all the women came and went, 
 Em                C       D
Barefoot servants, too.


 Em            C           D
Outside in the distance,
 Em           C        D
A wildcat did growl,
 Em               C            D
Two riders were approaching,
 Em               C      D     Em
The wind began to howl.
