| Old pirates, yes they | rob us, Sold | I to the merchant | ships. |
| G | Em | C | D |
| Minutes after they | took I - from | the bottomless | pit. |
| G | Em | C | Am |
| But my | hand was made | strong - by the | hand of the al | mighty. |
| G | Em | C | | D |
| He | fought in this gene | ration - | | triumphant | ly. |
| D | G | C | D | G |
| Won't you help to | sing, - | these | songs of | freedom, |
| C | D | Em | | C | |
| 'Cos | all I | ever had | | - | | - |
| D | G | C | | D | G |
| (was) Re | demption | songs, | | - Re | demption | songs. |
| Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, | |
| None but ourselves can free our minds. | |
| Have no fear for atomic energy, | |
| 'Cos none of them can stop the time. | |
| How long will they kill our prophets | |
| while we stand around and look? | |
| Yes, some say it's just a part of it, | |
| We got to fulfill the book. | |
| Won't you help to sing, - these songs of freedom, | |
| 'Cos all i ever had - (was) Redemption songs. | |
