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