[Verse]
    G                      Em
Old Pirates, yes, they rob I.
C             C/B       Am
Sold I to the merchant ships
G                         Em  C                   D7
  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        D7 
We forward in this generation triumphantly.

[Chorus]
D7                G    C       D        G
Won't you help to sing    these songs of freedom?
      C     D        Em   C  D       G      C 
Cause all I ever had,      redemption songs,
  D       G      C D  
Redemption songs.

[Break]
Em*  C D7 x4

[Verse]
      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                   D7
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
Ooh, some say it's just a part of it.
      C                    D7
We've got to fulfill the book.

[Chorus]
D7                G    C       D        G
Won't you help to sing    these songs of freedom?
      C     D        Em   C  D       G      C 
Cause all I ever had,      redemption songs,

Redemption songs, redemption songs.
