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

[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)

[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

 There must be some way out of here
Bm                          G
 There must be some way out of here
