[Intro]
G D F C G

[Verse 1]
G            D              C
Just like birds of a feather
G                   Em
We too have followed the golden sun
G               D
It feels so good,
F                    C                 G
Knowin' the watchman's gone

[Verse 2]

If I give you a rose, buddy
G                            Em
Would you please bury it in the fields?
G             D
I seen a rose
F                 C         G
Watchin' it all fold out

[Verse 3]
G               D                        C
There's a train down at the station
G                 Em
It's come to carry my bones away
G                   D
Two engines on
F                   C            G
Twenty-one coaches long
G          D
End to end
F                   C            G
Twenty-one coaches bend
G                        D
The watchman's out
F                C           G
Kickin' the bums about

[Verse 4]
G     D                         C
If I wait for the right moment
G                        Em
You can bet I'll climb aboard unseen
G                 D
I've done it before
F                  C                 G
I know I can do it in my sleep

The watchman's out

The watchman's out
F                 C        G
Kickin' your dreams about

[Verse 5]
G      D                         C
As I leave you in the sunset
G                     Em
Got one more nothin' I'd like to say

"You don't know me
F                     C      G
A son of the sea am I"

As I say to you, my brother

If you live to follow the golden sun

You better beware

Knowin' the watchman's always there

[Verse 7]
G        D                       C
If you find me feedin' daisies
G                      Em
Please turn my face up to the sky
G                    D
And leave me be
F                      C           G
Watchin' the moon roll by
G               D
Whatever I was
F                         C  G
You know it was all because
G                        D
I've been on the town
F                   C           G
Washin' the bullshit down

[Chorus]

Knowin' the watchman's gone
G               D
It's like a song
F                   C                G
