          C                                                                                    F  
The gilt-edged invitation came and I said, "What can this mean?
             C                                                                    F  
To attend the coronation as the first guest of the Queen
          G                                                                                         F  
And sit upon her right hand, where the Prince is normally seen?"
          C                                                                                    F  
The maids of honour stared at me and registered surprise
        C                                                                                 F  
To see a man of such good taste, appear before their eyes
          G                                                            F  
Now bring rather humble, I adopted a disguise
                  G                                                                         F  
As the Minister of State for Mass Environment Controls
                  G                                                                              F  
Who condemn the working classes for inhabiting the holes
             G                                                                                            G7  
That belong to Queen and Country, but do not permit their souls
                C                      G  
To be free like me
                  C                    G  
To be free like me
                          C              F    C    F  
Oh, to be free__
Verse
          C                                                                      F  
The Perspex chandelier began to melt and slip away
          C                                                                    F  
One million candle-powered, it kept the night at bay
                          G                                                                    F  
While the power station workers were busy making hay
          C                                                                         F  
The workers in the fields were engaged in self-defence
                     C                                                                                         F  
Which involved the use of barbed wire as a self-containing fence
                        G                                                                                    F  
But as a means of self-protection, it was needlessly immense
     G                                                                                                 F  
I stopped to ask them for a light, they pointed at the sun
                G                                                                                         F  
Which raised their hopes of harvesting a better crop than guns
          G                                                                    G7  
Can ever mass produce at the expense of anyone
                  C                      G  
Who is free like me
                  C                      G  
Who is free like me
                             C              F    C    F  
Oh, who is free__
Verse
          C                                                            F  
The solitary peasant in his home above the lake
                  C                                                                                            F  
Raised high on wooden stilts, has made the singular mistake
                  G                                                              F  
Of revolutionary conduct at the celebration wake
          C                                                                         F  
His urban counterpart engaged in mundane occupation
     C                                                                                         F  
Enjoys the chance of laughing at the Queen's humiliation
                  G                                                                                 F  
At the hands of Ministers of State for Rehabilitation
                     G                                                                                    F  
Now the power station worker, though his aim is too disjointed
                        G                                                                                      F  
Finds himself around the corner, while his gun is never pointed
                G                                                            G7  
He is ever at the ready, he desires to be anointed
                  C                      G  
And be free like me
                  C                      G  
And be free like me
                  C              F    C    F  
And be free__
