Amazing Grace chords by Traditional

Chords with lyrics

This is just a simple chord progression to strum while singing. I
included the measure bars to make it easier to sing. Play it and
see how fun an adaptation it is. I hope this works as well for
others as it has for me. Please continue to submit hymns of
Gospel Testimony.

Timing: 3/4

d.------d = tie (i.e. 1,2,3,1,2)

Amazing Grace
John Newton (1725-1807)

A augmentedA|mazing|Grace! how|sweet the|sound,
             A7A7 d.---d
That|saved a|wretch lik|e me!|
  D MajorD    D7D7    G+G   D MajorD
I |once was|lost, but|now am|found,
        A7A7   D MajorD d.---d
Was|blind, but|now I |see.|

'Twas|grace, that|taught my|heart to|fear,

And|grace my|fears re|lieved;|

How|precious|did that|grace ap|pear

The|hour I |first be|lieved.|


Thro'|many|dangers,|toils and|snares,

I|have al|ready|come;|

'Tis|grace hath|bro't me|safe, thus|far,

And|grace will|lead me|home.|


When|we've been|there ten|thousand|years,

Bright|shining|as th|e sun,|

We've|no less|days to|sing God's|praise

Than|when we |first be|gun.|

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
