6 -6 6 -6 6 7 6 -6
"There must be some way out of here"
6 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6
said the joker to the thief
6 -6 -6 -6 7 6
"There's too much confusion",
6 -6 -6 -6 6 -6
I can't get no relief
-8 7 -8 7 -8 -6 7 -8
Business men, they drink my wine,
-6 -6 7 -6 -6
plowmen dig my earth
-8 7 -8 7 -8 -6 8 -8
None of them along the line
-6 -6 7 7 6 -6 6 -6
know what any of it is worth.
-8 -8 7 -8 -8 7 -8 -6
"No reason to get excited",
6 -6 6 -6 6 7 -6
the thief he kindly spoke
-6 -6 7 -6 -6 6 6 -6
"There are many here among us
6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6
who feel that life is but a joke
-8 -8 7 -8 7 -8 -6 7
But you and I, we've been through that,
-6 7 -6 -6 -6 -6
and this is not our fate
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 7 6 -6
So let us not talk falsely now,
6 -6 -6 -6 6 -6
the hour is getting late".
-8 -8 -8 7 -8 -6 -6
All along the watchtower,
-6 -6 -6 6 -6
princes kept the view
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 -6
While all the women came and went,
-6 -6 7 6 -6
barefoot servants, too.
-8 -8 -8 7 -8 -6
Outside in the distance
6 -6 -6 6 -6
a wildcat did growl
-8 -8 7 -8 7 -8 -6
Two riders were approaching,
6 -6 -6 -6 6 -6
the wind began to howl.
