"There must be some 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." 

"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." 

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.

[Emaj7/G#] Friday night an' I'm going nowhere,

[Emaj7/G#] Turning over T.V. stations,
[A] Situations running through my [Emaj7/G#] head [A] 
[Emaj7/G#] Looking back through time, you know,
It's [A] clear that I've been blind, I've [Emaj7/G#] been a fool [A] 
To [Emaj7/G#] open up my heart to all [A] that jealousy
That bitterness [Emaj7/G#] that ridicule. [A]

To [Emaj7/G#] show you how I really feel,

[E] The love that I was [B] givin' you was [F#m7] never in [A] doubt
[E] Let go of your heart [B] let go of your [F#m7] head, and feel it [B] now

[Emaj7/G#] Sunday, all the lights in London [A] shining,
Sky [Emaj7/G#] is fading red [A] to blue.
[Emaj7/G#] Kickin' through the autumn leaves
And [A] wonderin' where it is you might be [Emaj7/G#] going to [A] 
[Emaj7/G#] Turnin' back for home, you know,
I'm [A] feeling so alone, I can't be [Emaj7/G#] lieve [A] 
[Emaj7/G#] Climbin' on the stair I turn around
To [A] see you smiling there in front of me. 
[Emaj7/G#] [A]
 
[Chorus 2]
[E] And if you want it, [B] come an' get it, [F#m7] for crying out loud [G#m7]
[E] The love that I was [B] givin' you was [F#m7] never in [A] doubt
[E] Let go of your heart [B] let go of your [F#m7] head, and feel it [B] now
