F Dm
McKinley hollered, McKinley squalled
F Dm
Doctor said, "McKinley, death is on the wall
A#maj7 Dm
Say it to me, if you got something to confess
F Dm
I heard all about it, he was going down slow
F Dm
I heard it on, the wireless radio
A#maj7 Dm
From down in the boondocks way down in Key West
F Dm
I’m searching for love, for inspiration
F Dm
On that pirate radio station
A#maj7 Dm
Coming out of Luxembourg and Budapest
F Dm
Radio signal’s clear as can be
F Dm
I’m so deep in love that I can hardly see
A#maj7 Dm
Down on the flat lands, way down in Key West
A#maj7
Key West is the place to be
F Dm
If you’re looking for immortality
F Dm
Stay on the road, follow the highway sign
A#maj7
Key West is fine and fair,
F Dm
If you lost your mind, you will find it there
A#maj7 Dm
Key West is on the horizon line
F Dm
I was born on the wrong side of the railroad track
F Dm
Like Ginsberg, Corso and Kerouac
A#maj7 Dm
Like Louis, and Jimmy and Buddy and all the rest
F Dm
Well, it might not be the thing to do
F Dm
But I’m sticking with you through and through
A#maj7 Dm
Down in the flat lands, way down in Key West
F Dm
I got both of my feet planted square on the ground
F Dm
Got my right hand high, with the thumb down
A#maj7 Dm
Such is life, such is happiness
F Dm
Hibiscus flowers, they grow everywhere here
F Dm
If you wear one, put it behind your ear
A#maj7 Dm
Down in the bottom, way down in Key West
A#maj7
Key West is the place to go
F Dm
Down by the Gulf of Mexico
F Dm
Beyond the city, beyond the sifting sands
A#maj7
Key West is the gateway key
F Dm
to innocence and purity
A#maj7 Dm
Key West, Key West is the enchanted land
F Dm
I’ve never lived in the land of Oz
F Dm
Or wasted my time with an unworthy cause
A#maj7 Dm
It’s hot down here, and you can’t be overdressed
F Dm
China blossoms of a toxic plant
F Dm
They can make you dizzy, I'd like to help you but I can't
A#maj7 Dm
Down in the flat lands way down in Key West
F Dm
Well the fish tail ponds, and the orchid trees
F Dm
They can give you that bleeding heart disease
A#maj7 Dm
People tell me I ought to try a little tenderness
F Dm
On Newton Street, Bay view Park
F Dm
Walking in the shadow after dark
A#maj7 Dm
Down under, way down in Key West
F Dm
I played Gumbo Limbo spirituals
F Dm
I know all the Hindu rituals
A#maj7 Dm
People tell me that I’m truly blessed
F Dm
Bougainvillea blooming in the summer, in the spring
F Dm
Winter here is an unknown thing
A#maj7 Dm
Down in the flat lands, way down in Key West
A#maj7 F Dm
Key West is under the sun, under the radar, under the gun
F Dm
You stay to the left, and then you lean to the right
A#maj7 F Dm
Feel the sunlight on your skin, the healing virtues of the wind
A#maj7 Dm
Key West, Key West is the land of light
F Dm
Wherever I travel, wherever I roam
F Dm
I’m not that far, before I come back home
A#maj7 Dm
I do what I think is right, what I think is best
F Dm
History street off off Mallory Square
F Dm
Truman had his White House there
A#maj7 Dm
East bound, west bound, way down in Key West
F Dm
Twelve years old, they put me in a suit
F Dm
Forced me to marry a prostitute
A#maj7 Dm
There were gold fringes on her wedding dress
F Dm
That’s my story, but not where it ends
F Dm
She’s still cute, and we’re still friends
A#maj7 Dm
Down on the bottom, way down in Key West
F Dm
I play both sides against the middle
F Dm
Tryin’ to pick up that pirate radio signal
A#maj7 Dm
I heard the news, I heard your last request
F Dm
Fly around my pretty little Miss
F Dm
I don’t love nobody, give me a kiss
A#maj7 Dm
Down on the bottom, way down in Key West
A#maj7
Key West is the place to be
F Dm
If you’re looking for immortality
F Dm
Key West is paradise divine
A#maj7
Key West is fine and fair
F Dm
If you lost your mind, you’ll find it there
A#maj7 Dm
Key West is on the horizon line
