Redemption Song

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

G                       Em
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
        C               Am7
None but ourselves can free our minds
        G           Em
Have no fear for atomic energy
        C           C/B Am7
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
