[Verse 1]
G Em
Old pirates, yes, they rob I.
C C/B Am
Sold I to the merchant ships
G Em C C/B Am
Minutes after they took I from the bottomless pit.
G Em
But my hand was made strong
C C/B Am
By the hand of the Almighty.
G Em C D
We forward in this generation triumphantly.
[Chorus]
G C D G
Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom?
C D Em C D G
'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs,
C D G C D
redemption songs.
[Verse 2]
G Em
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery,
C C/B Am
None but ourselves can free our minds.
G Em
Have no fear for atomic energy,
C C/B D
'Cause none of them can stop the time.
G Em
How long shall they kill our prophets
C C/B Am
While we stand aside and look?
G Em
Some say it's just a part of it.
C C/B D
We've got to fulfill the book.
[Chorus]
G C D G
Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom?
C D Em C D G
'Cause all I ever had, redemption songs,
C D G C D G C D
redemption songs, redemption songs.
