Intro
G#m E B D#
[Verse]
G#m E
I haven't met a locked door yet
B
that I couldn't beat
D#
on a chain around my neck
D#7
I keep my skeleton key
[Chorus]
G#m
Don't waste your worry on me
E
I always find what I need
B
come and go as I please
D#
I've got my skeleton key
G#m
Don't waste your worry on me
E
I always find what I need
C#
come and go as I please
E
I've got my skeleton key
[Verse]
G#m E
By now it's just a simple trick
B
not much to see
D# D#7
you hear the tumblers catch and click
G#m
then turn the key
E C#
but I've found work and welcome everywhere I've been
E
cause everyone's got someplace they wanna be let in
[Chorus]
G#m E B
Along the way the old men call me by my mother's name
D#
she looked the same they say
G#m E C#
the children wave or hide behind their mothers' skirts, afraid
E
strangers here still seem strange
[Verse]
G#m
they hear the accent
E
know I'm from nowhere near
B
but I speak the language
D# D#7
and I know the customs here
[Verse]
G#m E
I come from over the horizon
C#
pass through every dozen years
E
go home, tell of my arrival
D#
the skeleton key's here
[Chorus]
G#m E B D#
I've got my, my skeleton, my skeleton key
G#m E C#
I've got my, got my, got my skeleton, my skeleton key
G#m
Yeah
[Chorus]
G#m E B D#
don't you go waste all your worry on me
G#m E C# E G#m
cause I'll make my way with my skeleton key
