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