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.
[repeat intro (only
rhythm section]
[continue with the
same chords as the
first verse]
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
