X-Status: Status: RO "All Along the Watchtower"-as played by Dave Matthews Band This song was written by Bob Dylan, but has done by DMB on their very first album which can only get at live shows or through mail. They also do it a lot in concert. It's a great song! Enjoy!!! It starts out with just Dave playing his acoustic. And goes something like this: RIFF 1: I--------------------------------------------------------------------------I 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 This should be exactly what he plays, I'll try to tab out some stuff from the their new CD.
