It took me ages to work this one out
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do 

+8  -8  +7   -7    +7  -8 -8
Old pirates, yes, they rob I;
+8  +8 +8 -8  +7   -7   +7
Sold I to the merchant ships,
-7  -6  +6 +6  +7   -7  -7
Minutes after they took I
+6   +6  +6 +6 +6   -6
From the bottomless pit.
-7  +8 -8  +7 -7 +7   -8    -8
But my  h--an--d was made strong
+8 +8   +8  -8 +7  -7 +7 +7  
By the hand of the Almighty.
-7  -7  -7  -6  +6  +7 -6 -7  -7  
We forward in this ge-ne-ra-tion
+6  +6  -6   -6
Tri-um-phant-ly.

-7    -8   -7  -6  +6
Won't you help to sing
 +6    -7   -6 -6  +6
These songs of freedom
 -6   -7 -8 -7 -6  +6 
Cause all I ev-er have
+6 -7 -6-6    +6
Redemption songs;
+6 -7 -6-6    +6
Redemption songs.

-7 -7 +8 -8   +7  -7      +7  +7 -8  -8   -8
Em-an-ci-pate yourselves from mental slavery;
+8    +8  +8  +8   -8   +7   -7   +7
None but ourselves can free our minds.
-7   -7  -7  -6  +6  +6 +7 -7 -7
Have no fear for atomic e-ner-gy,
+6    +6   +6  +6   +6  +6  +6   -6 
Cause none of them can stop the time.
-7   +8   -8    +7   -7  +7  -8  -8
How long shall they kill our prophets,
+8    +8  +8   -8 +7  -7  +7   
While we stand aside and look
-7   -7  -6    +6  +7 -6 -7  -7
Some say it's just a part of it:
-7    -7  -7 +6 +6  -6  -6
We've got to fulfil the book.

-7    -8   -7  -6  +6
Won't you help to sing
 +6    -7   -6 -6  +6
These songs of freedom
 -6   -7 -8 -7 -6  +6 
Cause all I ev-er have
+6 -7 -6-6    +6
Redemption songs
+6 -7 -6-6    +6
Redemption songs
+6 -7 -6-6    +6
Redemption songs.
