D A D
There's a fellow roaming round the street,
A D
I think most of all I'd like to meet.
G Em D
I must consider him a clever lad,
G Em A
making like a young Sir Galahad.
#2.
D A D
Everywhere I go I think he's been,
A D
he autographs the walls around the scene.
G Em D
If you look hard enough you'll find him there,
G Em A
in rooms and public places everywhere.

Kilroy was here..left his name around the place.

Kilroy was here..though I've never seen his face.
#3.
D A D
On a short vacation with my friends,
D A D
I found I had time on my hands to spend.

Surveyed my telescope around the land,
G Em A
and saw his name imprinted in the sand.

D C D
Kilroy was here..left his name around the place.
D C D
Kilroy was here..though I've never seen his face.
F# G A
I wonder could he be a cavalier, or a roving musketeer,
G F#
or just a dustman who's insane.

Everyplace regardless where or when,
G A G F#
the public poet strikes again, and again, and again.
#4.
D A D A
If I ever meet that man at all, I'll hang a plaque upon
D G Em D
my bedroom wall..a monument erected in his name,
G Em A
would help to contribute towards his fame.

D C D
Kilroy was here..left his name around the place.
D C D
Kilroy was here..though I've never seen his face.
OUTRO:
D C D
Kilroy was here..left his name around the place.
