D Bm
On that pirate radio station
Gmaj7 Bm
Coming out of Luxembourg and Budapest

Got my right hand high, with the thumb down

Hibiscus flowers, they grow everywhere here
D Bm
If you wear one, put it behind your ear

Down by the Gulf of Mexico
D Bm
Beyond the city, beyond the sifting sands

to innocence and purity

D Bm
On Newton Street, Bay view Park
D Bm
Walking in the shadow after dark
Gmaj7 Bm
Down under, way down in Key West
D Bm
I played Gumbo Limbo spirituals
D Bm
I know all the Hindu rituals
Gmaj7 Bm
People tell me that I’m truly blessed

East bound, west bound, way down in Key West

Forced me to marry a prostitute

Gmaj7 Bm
Down on the bottom, way down in Key West

Tryin’ to pick up that pirate radio signal

I heard the news, I heard your last request
