It starts out with just Dave playing his acoustic. And goes something like
this:

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
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
It starts out with just Dave
..playing his acoustic. And goes
..something like
this:

All Along the Watchtower è molto semplice sia da eseguire che nella struttura, la chitarra e l'armonica suonano tra le strofe
