[Intro]
|Bm |G |Bm |G | x2
[Verse 1]
Bm G
There must be some way out of here
Bm G
Said the joker to the thief
Bm G
There's too much confusion
Bm G
I can't get no relief
Bm G
Businessmen, they drink my wine
Bm G
Ploughmen dig my earth
Bm G
None of them along the line
Bm G
Know what any of it is worth
[Instrumental]
|Bm |G |Bm |G | x2
[Verse 2]
Bm G
No reason to get excited
Bm G
The thief, he kindly spoke
Bm G
There are many here among us now
Bm G
Who feel that life is but a joke
Bm G
But you and I, we've been through that
Bm G
And this is not our fate
Bm G
So let us not talk falsely now
Bm G
The hour is getting late (late, late, late)
[Instrumental]
|Bm |G |Bm |G | x2
[Verse 3]
Bm G
All along the watchtower
Bm G
Princes kept the view
Bm G
While all the women came and went
Bm G
Barefoot servants too
Bm G
Outside in the distance
Bm G
A wildcat did growl
Bm G
Two riders were approaching
Bm G
The wind began to howl
[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Bm G Bm G
There must be some way out of here
Bm G
There must be some way out of here
