Title:			ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER		(Bob Dylan)

	    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
