Lyrics
"There must be (G5)some kind of way
(F5)out of here,"
(A5)said the (G5)joker to the thief.
(A5)"Too much (G5)(F5)confusion,
(A5)I can't (G5)get no
(F5)relief. (A5)(G5)Bus'nessmen, they (F5)drink my wine
(A5)and (G5)plowmen, they dig my
(F5)earth. (A5)None of them (G5)along the (F5)line
(A5)know (G5)what any of it's (F5)worth."
(Am)"No reason (G)to get (F)excited,"
(Am)the thief, he (G)kindly (F)spoke.
(Am)"There are (G)many here
(F)among us (Am)who (G)feel that life is (F)but a joke.
(Am)But you and (G)I, we've been through all (F)that,
yes, we have, (G)oh, (Am)and this is (G)not our fate.
(Am)So let us (G)not talk (F)falsely now,
(G)the (Am)hour's (G)getting (F)late,
(Am)late.
(Am)All (G)along (F)the watchtower,
(Am)(G)princes kept (F)the view,
(G)oh, (Am)while all the (G)women, all the (F)women,
all the women came (G)and (Am)they went.
(G)Barefoot (F)servants, too.
(Am)Outside (G)in the cold
(F)distance, (G)a (Am)(G)wildcat did growl.
(F)La, la, (G)la.
(Am)Two (G)riders were (F)approaching;
(G)the (A5)wind began to howl.
(Am)No reason (G)to get (F)excited.
