It starts out with just Dave playing his acoustic. And goes something like
this:
RIFF 1
I--------------------------------------------------------------------------I
I*------------------------------------------------------------------------*I

I-----------------------------------------------3---3---5---5---7----------I
I*----------------------------------------------3---3---5---5---7---------*I
I-----5---5---0--3-3-3-0--3-3--1--1--0--1---1---1---3---3---3---5----------I
Play this part for the intro and suring the first and third verses
After the first verse is over the band comes in and they pick up the pace a
little and Dave plays the normal chords(Am G F G.)
here's a summary of the song:
RIFF 1
"There must be some way outta here"
Said the joker to the theft
There's too much confusion
I can't get no release
But businessmen, they drink my wine
Come and dig my earth
None of them along the line
Know what any of it is worth
Am G F G
No reason to get excited
The theftly kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that live 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's getting late
RIFF 1
All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Bare-foot servants too
But outside in the distance
A wildcat did growl
Two writers were approaching
The wind begins to howl
RIFF 1
