Redemption Song

Bob Marley & The Wailers

       G                      Emi7
1. Old pirates, yes, they rob I
        C    G/B           Ami
   Sold I to merchant ships
   G                       Emi
   Minutes after they took I
   C        B/B         Ami
   From the bottom less pit
       G                 Emi7
   But my hands was made strong
   C            G/B      Ami
   By the hands of Almighty
        G                  Emi
   We forward in this generation
   C         D
   Triumphantly
                         G
   Won't you help me sing...

   Redemption songs...

2. Emancipate yourselves from mental slav'ry
   None but ourselves can free our minds
   Have no fear to atomic energy
   'Cause none of them can stop the time
   How lon shall they kill our propeths
   While when we stand aside and look
   Some say it's just a part of it
   We've got to fulfill the book...
