Key West Philosopher Pirate by Bob Dylan - Guitar Chords
<< Back to Bob Dylan Song List
Version 1
C Am C Am
C Am
McKinley hollered, McKinley squalled
C Am
Doctor said, "McKinley, death is on the wall
Fmaj7 Am
Say it to me, if you got something to confess
C Am
I heard all about it, he was going down slow
C Am
I heard it on, the wireless radio
Fmaj7 Am
From down in the boondocks way down in Key West
C Am
I’m searching for love, for inspiration
C Am
On that pirate radio station
Fmaj7 Am
Coming out of Luxembourg and Budapest
C Am
Radio signal’s clear as can be
C Am
I’m so deep in love that I can hardly see
Fmaj7 Am
Down on the flat lands, way down in Key West
Fmaj7
Key West is the place to be
C Am
If you’re looking for immortality
C Am
Stay on the road, follow the highway sign
Fmaj7
Key West is fine and fair,
C Am
If you lost your mind, you will find it there
Fmaj7 Am
Key West is on the horizon line
C Am
I was born on the wrong side of the railroad track
C Am
Like Ginsberg, Corso and Kerouac
Fmaj7 Am
Like Louis, and Jimmy and Buddy and all the rest
C Am
Well, it might not be the thing to do
C Am
But I’m sticking with you through and through
Fmaj7 Am
Down in the flat lands, way down in Key West
C Am
I got both of my feet planted square on the ground
C Am
Got my right hand high, with the thumb down
Fmaj7 Am
Such is life, such is happiness
C Am
Hibiscus flowers, they grow everywhere here
C Am
If you wear one, put it behind your ear
Fmaj7 Am
Down in the bottom, way down in Key West
Fmaj7
Key West is the place to go
C Am
Down by the Gulf of Mexico
C Am
Beyond the city, beyond the sifting sands
Fmaj7
Key West is the gateway key
C Am
to innocence and purity
Fmaj7 Am
Key West, Key West is the enchanted land
C Am
I’ve never lived in the land of Oz
C Am
Or wasted my time with an unworthy cause
Fmaj7 Am
It’s hot down here, and you can’t be overdressed
C Am
China blossoms of a toxic plant
C Am
They can make you dizzy, I'd like to help you but I can't
Fmaj7 Am
Down in the flat lands way down in Key West
C Am
Well the fish tail ponds, and the orchid trees
C Am
They can give you that bleeding heart disease
Fmaj7 Am
People tell me I ought to try a little tenderness
C Am
On Newton Street, Bay view Park
C Am
Walking in the shadow after dark
Fmaj7 Am
Down under, way down in Key West
C Am
I played Gumbo Limbo spirituals
C Am
I know all the Hindu rituals
Fmaj7 Am
People tell me that I’m truly blessed
C Am
Bougainvillea blooming in the summer, in the spring
C Am
Winter here is an unknown thing
Fmaj7 Am
Down in the flat lands, way down in Key West
Fmaj7 C Am
Key West is under the sun, under the radar, under the gun
C Am
You stay to the left, and then you lean to the right
Fmaj7 C Am
Feel the sunlight on your skin, the healing virtues of the wind
Fmaj7 Am
Key West, Key West is the land of light
C Am
Wherever I travel, wherever I roam
C Am
I’m not that far, before I come back home
Fmaj7 Am
I do what I think is right, what I think is best
C Am
History street off off Mallory Square
C Am
Truman had his White House there
Fmaj7 Am
East bound, west bound, way down in Key West
C Am
Twelve years old, they put me in a suit
C Am
Forced me to marry a prostitute
Fmaj7 Am
There were gold fringes on her wedding dress
C Am
That’s my story, but not where it ends
C Am
She’s still cute, and we’re still friends
Fmaj7 Am
Down on the bottom, way down in Key West
C Am
I play both sides against the middle
C Am
Tryin’ to pick up that pirate radio signal
Fmaj7 Am
I heard the news, I heard your last request
C Am
Fly around my pretty little Miss
C Am
I don’t love nobody, give me a kiss
Fmaj7 Am
Down on the bottom, way down in Key West
Fmaj7
Key West is the place to be
C Am
If you’re looking for immortality
C Am
Key West is paradise divine
Fmaj7
Key West is fine and fair
C Am
If you lost your mind, you’ll find it there
Fmaj7 Am
Key West is on the horizon line
