[Verse 1]

    G                     Em7
Old pirates, yes, they rob I
     C        G/B      Am 
sold I to the merchant ships
G                       Em      
   Minutes after they took I
C           G/B        Am6
   from the bottomless pit.
       G        Em7
But my hand was made strong
C         G/B         Am
   by the hand of the Almighty.
   G                   Em
We forward in this generation
C              Am6
   Triumphantly.


[Chorus]

                     G      
Won't you help to sing
C          D           G
   Another song of freedom
       C     D         Em 
'Cause all I ever have,
C    D           G
   Redemption songs,
C    D           G              C    D
   Redemption songs.

[Verse 2]

    G                     Em7
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery,
     C        G/B      Am 
None but ourselves can free our mind.
G                       Em      
Have no fear for atomic energy,
C           G/B        Am6
'Cause none of them can stop the time.
       G        Em7
How long shall they kill our prophets,
C         G/B         Am
While we stand aside and look?
   G                   Em
Some say it's just a part of it,
C              Am6
We've got to fulfill the Book.


[Chorus]

                     G      
Won't you help to sing
C          D           G
   Another song of freedom
       C     D         Em 
'Cause all I ever have,
C    D           G
   Redemption songs,
C    D           G              C    D
   Redemption songs.
