VERSE1:
 E                 A         E
AMAZING GRACE! HOW SWEET THE SOUND
     E                   B 
THAT SAVED A WRETCH LIKE ME!
  E        E7        A      E
I ONCE WAS LOST, BUT NOW AM FOUND;
    F#m        B     E
WAS BLIND, BUT NOW I SEE.


VERSE2:
      E                    A        E
’TWAS GRACE THAT TAUGHT MY HEART TO FEAR,
    E                B
AND GRACE MY FEARS RELIEVED;
    E        E7       A       E
HOW PRECIOUS DID THAT GRACE APPEAR
    F#m    B       E
THE HOUR I FIRST BELIEVED!


VERSE3:
        E             A          E
THROUGH MANY DANGERS, TOILS AND SNARES,
  E            B
I HAVE ALREADY COME;
     E          E7         A         E
’TIS GRACE HATH BROUGHT ME SAFE THUS FAR,
    F#m        B       E
AND GRACE WILL LEAD ME HOME.


VERSE4:
    E                 A       E
THE LORD HAS PROMISED GOOD TO ME,
    E              B
HIS WORD MY HOPE SECURES;
   E       E7         A       E
HE WILL MY SHIELD AND PORTION BE,
   F#m     B      E
AS LONG AS LIFE ENDURES.


VERSE5:
     E                   A           E
YEA, WHEN THIS FLESH AND HEART SHALL FAIL,
    E                 B
AND MORTAL LIFE SHALL CEASE,
  E        E7      A        E
I SHALL POSSESS, WITHIN THE VEIL,
  F#m     B       E
A LIFE OF JOY AND PEACE.


VERSE6:
    E                   A          E
THE EARTH SHALL SOON DISSOLVE LIKE SNOW,
    E              B
THE SUN FORBEAR TO SHINE;
    E        E7        A      E
BUT GOD, WHO CALLED ME HERE BELOW,
     F#m   B    E
WILL BE FOREVER MINE.


VERSE7:
     E                    A        E
WHEN WE’VE BEEN THERE TEN THOUSAND YEARS,
       E              B
BRIGHT SHINING AS THE SUN,
      E       E7      A          E
WE’VE NO LESS DAYS TO SING GOD’S PRAISE
     F#m       B       E
THAN WHEN WE’D FIRST BEGUN.
