Sold I to the merchant ships

None but ourselves can free our minds.

Have no fear for atomic energy,

Cause none of them can stop the time.
    G                        Em Em7
How long shall they kill our prophets
         C      G/B         Am
While we stand aside and look?
          G              Em
Ooh, some say it's just a part of it.
      C         Am7         D
We've got to fulfill the book.

Cause all I ever had,      redemption songs,
