E                                        B
Give me a spool of thread and I'll make the golden gate
          A                                      E
You got a bag of rocks, well I'll pave the interstate
                                           B
With a busted up log I'll build the Hoover Dam
        A                                   B
I got a homemade rocket in my pocket, I'm a goddamn Uncle Sam


[Chorus]
A                          E
People are weird and so am I
B                                   A
Lay it on down, let your freak flag fly
A                                  E
No I really don't care how you get high
B                                   A                        E
Lay it on down, let your freak flag fly, let your freak flag fly


[Verse]
E                                            B
Want perfect teeth and a deep, dark, healthy tan
       A                            E
Want a condo on the beach in Afghanistan
E                                          B
I wanna win the Powerball so I can start a war
        A                            B
Between where and when, us and them, after and before


[Chorus]
A                          E
People are weird and so am I
B                                   A
Lay it on down, let your freak flag fly
A                                  E
No I really don't care how you get high
B                                   A                        E
Lay it on down, let your freak flag fly, let your freak flagfly


[Instrumental]
E E B A  x2


[Verse]
E                                               B
Give me a chance of love and a gold top coupe Deville
          A                              E
Give me a never did and I swear I always will
E                                                  B
You like throwing stones but your house is made of glass
         A                                  B
And your big ol' mouth keeps writing checks, you just can't cash


[Chorus]
A                          E
People are weird and so am I
B                                   A
Lay it on down, let your freak flag fly
A                                  E
No I really don't care how you get high
B                                   A
Lay it on down, let your freak flag fly
A                                  E
No I really don't care how you get high
B                                   A                        E
Lay it on down, let your freak flag fly, let your freak flag fly
