Redemption Song - Bob Marley

  [Verse] (D Bm G-D Em x3) - D Bm G A - A

Old pirates, yes, they rob I

Sold I to the merchant ships      [Intro]

Minutes after they took I            (x2)

From the bottomless pit           D   G-A

But my hand was made strong       D-A G-D

By the hand of the almighty

We forward in this generation

Triumphantly

                                 [Chorus]

Won't you help to sing        (D  G-A x2)

These songs of freedom         Bm G-A

Cos all I ever had            (D  G-A x2)

(Redemption songs x2)

                               [Verse #2]

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery

None but ourselves can free our minds, ()

Have no fear for atomic energy

Cos none of them can stop a-the time

How long shall they kill our prophets

While we stand aside and look

Some say it's just a part of it  [Chorus]

We've got to fulfill the book        (x3)

                                 [Instru]

[Verse #2] (woh) [Chorus] (x1)       (x4)

All I ever had - Redemption songs  Bm G-A

These (songs of freedom x2)

[Outro] Em Em Em7 Em7-X
