(Capo 3rd Fret)

Intro: G, C, D (x2)


      G              Em
Old pirates yes they rob I
     C                 Am
Sold I to the merchant ships
G                   Em
Minutes after they took I
C                    D
From the bottomless pit
        G        Em
But my hand was made strong
        C            Am
By the hand of the almighty
     G               Em       
We forward in this generation
C     D     
Triumphantly



Chorus:
D                  G     C
Won’t you help to sing
        D         G
These songs of freedom?
       C     D    Em
Cause all I ever have
C   D         G
Redemption songs
C   D         G
Redemption songs
  C           D

      G                           Em
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
             C                  Am
None but ourselves can free our minds
         G               Em
Have no fear for atomic energy
       C                         D
Cause none of them can stop the time
     G                        Em
How long shall they kill our prophets
          C               Am
While we stand aside and look?
      G              Em
Some say it’s just a part of it
       C                  D
We’ve got to fulfill the book



Chorus:
D                  G     C
Won’t you help to sing
        D         G
These songs of freedom?
       C     D    Em
Cause all I ever have
C   D         G

Sold I to the merchant ships
G                   Em
Minutes after they took I
C                    D
From the bottomless pit
     G                        Em
How long shall they kill our prophets
          C               Am
While we stand aside and look?
