[Verse 1]
C E Am Am
For all those feet in ancient times, for stepping
C E Am Am G*
out of line, dragging time and tide.
C E Am Am
Against the keepers of the past, the flags of class
C E Am Am G*
and caste, limp upon the mast.
[Pre-Chorus]
F G Am A
All your week you were someone's slave, today you're a free man.
F G* C C
If they tell you you can't, then you can.
[Chorus]
F G Am Am
You can, you can, you can;
F G* G* G* G* G* G* G* G*
you can, you can.
[Verse 2]
C E Am Am
Walking high upon the hills, rough-shod against
C E Am Am G*
well-heeled, a butterfly breaks upon the wheel.
C E Am Am
A compass and a cap, a sing-song and a
C E Am Am G*
scrap, a dotted line across the map.
[Pre-Chorus]
F G Am A
All your week you were someone's slave, today you're a free man.
F G* C C
If they tell you you can't, then you can.
[Chorus]
F G Am Am
You can, you can, you can;
F G* G* G* G* G* G* G* G*
you can, you can.

[Pre-Chorus]
F G Am A
All your week you were someone's slave, today you're a free man.
F G* C C
If they tell you you can't, then you can.
[Chorus]
F G Am Am
You can, you can, you can;
F G* G* G* G* G* G* G* G*
you can, you can.
[Verse 3]
C E Am Am
Every five-barred gate my home, a place to call
C E Am Am G*
my own, stone to boundary stone.
C E Am Am
For every footprint on the land the banners
C E Am Am G*
and the banned, who swayed the best-laid plans.
[Pre-Chorus]
F G Am A
All your week you were someone's slave, today you're a free man.
F G* C C
If they tell you you can't, then you can.
[End-Chorus] (Repeat and Fade Out)
F G Am Am
You can, you can, you can.
