Key of B
So, I've enjoyed performing this song several times,
but I've been disappointed that there isn't a 100%
correct tab of it out there. So, I finally decided to
fix the problem myself. Some of the chords are a little
tricky, but it sounds BEAUTIFUL when played correctly.
You'll have to listen for the chord change rhythm, though.
If you want to play this song on guitar,
I recommend you play it Capo 4 and transpose it down 4 steps,
or transpose it up 1, and play it 1/2 step down in tuning. Enjoy!
Intro: B - B/F# - F# - [ch]B/E[/ch] - - [ch]F#/E[/ch] x2
B B/F# F# [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]F#/E[/ch]
Seems like all I could see was the struggle
B B/F# F# [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]F#/E[/ch]
Haunted by ghosts that lived in my past
B B/F# F# [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]F#/E[/ch]
Bound up in shackles of all my failures
B B/F# F# [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]F#/E[/ch]
Wondering how long is this gonna last?
G#m F#
Then You look at this prisoner
B [ch]B/E[/ch]
and say to me, son
G#m F#
Stop fighting a fight
B [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]B2/E[/ch] [ch]B5/E[/ch]
that's already been won.
Chorus:
B B/F#
And I am redeemed
F# [ch]B/E[/ch]
You set me free
F# B
So I'll shake off these heavy chains
B/F# F#
and wipe away every stain
G#m F# E
Now I'm not who I used to be

B B/F#
I am redeemed
F# [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]F#/E[/ch]
...I'm redeemed.
B B/F# F# [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]F#/E[/ch]
All my life I have been called unworthy
B B/F# F# [ch]B/E[/ch] [ch]F#/E[/ch]
Named by the voice of my shame and regret
G#m F#
But when I hear You whisper,
B [ch]B/E[/ch]
child lift up your head
G#m F#
I remember, oh God,
B E
You're not done with me yet.
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
G#m Gaug
Because I don't have to be the old man inside of me
B B2 E
'cause his day is long dead and gone.
G#m Gaug
Because I've got a new name, a new life, I'm not the same
B B2 [ch]B/E[/ch]
And a hope that will carry me home.
Final Chorus:
*[ch]B2/E[/ch] B B/F#
I am redeemed
F# [ch]B/E[/ch]
You set me free
F# B
So I'll shake off these heavy chains
B/F# F#
and wipe away every stain
G#m F# [ch]B/E[/ch]
'cause I'm not who I used to be
(Repeat Final Chorus)
G#m F# [ch]B/E[/ch]
Oh, God, I'm not who I used to be
G#m F# [ch]B/E[/ch]
Jesus, I'm not who I used to be
B B/F# F# [ch]B/E[/ch]
'cause I am redeemed
[ch]F#/E[/ch] B
Thank God, redeemed
*B2/E is only in the first final chorus.
Have a great day, and God bless you!
