Cap in hand  Proclaimers

[D]  I could tell the meaning of a [G]word like se[A]rene,
[D]                             [G]         [A]                                                                                            
   I got some `O' grades when I was sixteen,----

[D]  I can tell the difference 'tween [G]margarine and [A]butter,
[D]  I can say "Saskatchawen" without [G]starting to [A]stutter.
   But I [A]can't under[D]stand why we [G]let someone else[D]  rule our [A]land,
NC D
we're cap in hand.
[D]  I could get a broken jaw from [G]being in a [A]fight,
[D]  I know it's evening when [G]day turns to [A]night,
[D]  I can understand why Stran[G]raer lie so [A]lowly,
[D]  They could save a lot of points by [G]signing Hib's [A]goalie.
   But I [A]can't under[D]stand why we [G]let someone else[D]  rule our[A] land,
NC D
we're cap in hand.
[G]  We [D]fight [A]  when they [D]ask us,
[G]  We [D]boast [A]  then we [D]cower,
[G]  We [D]beg [A]  for a [D]piece of
[G]  What's already,  what's already,   what's already, [A]ours.
Instr:
|D |D |G |A |D |D |G |A |A |D |G |D |A |A |
[D]  Once I thought I could [G]make God a [A]bribe,
[D]  So I said I was [G]in His lost [A]tribe,
[D]  Getting handouts can [G]be so frus[A]trating,
[D]  "Get in line son, there's [G]five million [A]waiting".
    But I can't under[D]stand why you [G]let someone else[D]   rule your [A]land
NC D
You're cap in hand.
    No, I [A]can't under[D]stand why we [G]let someone else[D]   rule our [A]land,
NC D Bm G E7
We're cap in hand, cap in hand, cap in hand, cap in hand,
    No, I [A]can't under[D]stand why we [G]let someone else[D]   rule our [A]land,
NC D
We're cap in hand .... (listen to the record for the way they finish it)
