Am - No capo (Bob Dylan)

Am G F G

Intro

Am  G   F    G 

Verse 1

"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
Businessmen, they drink my wine,  plowmen dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth
Am G F G 

Verse 2

"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 fate
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late
Am G F G 

Chorus

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl
Four most important chords for beginners [1]
