Redemption Song - Bob Marley

  [Verse] (G Em C-G Am x3) - G Em C D - D

Old pirates, yes, they rob I

Sold I to the merchant ships      [Intro]

Minutes after they took I            (x2)

From the bottomless pit           G   C-D

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

By the hand of the almighty

We forward in this generation

Triumphantly

                                 [Chorus]

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

These songs of freedom         Em C-D

Cos all I ever had            (G  C-D 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  Em C-D

These (songs of freedom x2)

[Outro] Am Am Am7 Am7-X
