[Verse 1]
G                Cadd9          D
Talk amongst the skeletons this morning
G                  Cadd9        D
Aside from all the medicine and health
   G                    Cadd9       G                 D
If you could do it all again, would you do it all the same?
   G                          Cadd9            D
Is there something that you'd tell your former self?
           G                        Cadd9           D
There were those that wished they'd spun upon a jukebox
           G               Cadd9          D
There were pirates who had never seen the sea
    G                 Cadd9      G                 D
But the one recurring theme, the one recurring dream they had
    G              Cadd9          D
Was to be whatever they wanted to be
 
 
[Chorus]
      G     Cadd9     D
To be Pyotr Tchaikovsky
      G         Cadd9     D
To be free like everyone else
           G     Cadd9    D
There will be no flags to warn me
       G      Cadd9        D
'Cause I just want to be myself

[Verse 2]
G         Cadd9        D
Julie telephoning by a ouija
         G     Cadd9               D
Is there any advice that you could give?
     Em                             Cadd9               Em
When you know you're not like them, Do you know La Varsovienne?
  G               Cadd9              D
I know that I am living, but can you show me how to live
 
 
[Chorus]
        G    Cadd9 D
And the Holy Roman Army
          G           Cadd9         D
Said your heart beats like everyone else
          G       Cadd9    D
You don't need no flags to tell you who you are
G      Cadd9        D
I just want to be myself
 
 
[Interlude]
G    Cadd9     D
        lalala laaaa
G    Cadd9     D
        lalala laaaa
G    Cadd9     D
        lalala laaaa
G    Cadd9     D
        lalala laaaa
 
 
[Chorus]
           G    Cadd9          D
There's an aura that surrounds me
          G         Cadd9        D
There's a different kind of wealth
      G          Cadd9    D
And I don't need flags to know you're really something
    G      Cadd9        D
And I just love you for yourself
    G      Cadd9        D
Oh, I just love you for yourself

      lalala laaaa
