VERSE1:
 A                 D         A
AMAZING GRACE! HOW SWEET THE SOUND
     A                   E 
THAT SAVED A WRETCH LIKE ME!
  A        A7        D      A
I ONCE WAS LOST, BUT NOW AM FOUND;
    Bm         E     A
WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I SEE.


VERSE2:
      A                    D        A
’TWAS GRACE THAT TAUGHT MY HEART TO FEAR,
    A                E
AND GRACE MY FEARS RELIEVED;
    A        A7       D       A
HOW PRECIOUS DID THAT GRACE APPEAR
    Bm     E       A
THE HOUR I FIRST BELIEVED!


VERSE3:
        A             D          A
THROUGH MANY DANGERS, TOILS AND SNARES,
  A            E
I HAVE ALREADY COME;
     A          A7         D         A
’TIS GRACE HATH BROUGHT ME SAFE THUS FAR,
    Bm         E       A
AND GRACE WILL LEAD ME HOME.


VERSE4:
    A                 D       A
THE LORD HAS PROMISED GOOD TO ME,
    A              E
HIS WORD MY HOPE SECURES;
   A       A7         D       A
HE WILL MY SHIELD AND PORTION BE,
   Bm      E      A
AS LONG AS LIFE ENDURES.


VERSE5:
     A                   D           A
YEA, WHEN THIS FLESH AND HEART SHALL FAIL,
    A                 E
AND MORTAL LIFE SHALL CEASE,
  A        A7      D        A
I SHALL POSSESS, WITHIN THE VEIL,
  Bm      E       A
A LIFE OF JOY AND PEACE.


VERSE6:
    A                   D          A
THE EARTH SHALL SOON DISSOLVE LIKE SNOW,
    A              E
THE SUN FORBEAR TO SHINE;
    A        A7        D      A
BUT GOD, WHO CALLED ME HERE BELOW,
     Bm    E    A
WILL BE FOREVER MINE.


VERSE7:
     A                    D        A
WHEN WE’VE BEEN THERE TEN THOUSAND YEARS,
       A              E
BRIGHT SHINING AS THE SUN,
      A       A7      D          A
WE’VE NO LESS DAYS TO SING GOD’S PRAISE
     Bm        E       A
THAN WHEN WE’D FIRST BEGUN.
