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

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