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

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

B Cadd9 F#
