1. Talk amongst the skeletons this morning,

G C D

aside from all the medicine and health.

G C G D

If you could do it all again, would you do it all the same ?

G C D

Is there something that you'd tell your former self ?

G C D

2. There were those that wished they'd spun upon a jukebox,

G C D

there were pirates who had never seen the sea.

G C G D

But the one recurring theme, the one recurring dream they had,

G C D

was to be whatever they wanted to be.

G C D G C D

To be Pyotr Tchaikovsky, to be free like everyone else,

G C D G C D

there will be no flags to warn me 'cause I just want to be myself.

3. You'll let telephone in by a region,

G C D

is there any advice that you could give ?

G C G D

When you know you're not like them, do you know La Varsovienne ?

G C D

I know that I am living, but can you show me how to live.

G C D G C D

And the Holy Roman Army said your heart beats like everyone else,

G C D

you don't need no flags to tell you who you are,

G C D

I just want to be myself.

G C D

+ There's an aura that surrounds me,

G C D

there's a different kind of wealth,

G C D

and I don't need flags to know you're really something.

G C D

And I just love you for yourself.

G C D

Oh, I just love you for yourself !
