Amazing Grace
Lyrics and Music by John Newton

Verse 1:

G    G/B G/D    D7  Em    C   G
Amazing  grace! how sweet the sound

     G       A9     A7   D Em7/D D
That saved a wretch like me!

G          G/B       C G/B C  G
I once was lost, but now   am found;

G/B Em     G/D G/D D7 G
Was blind, but now I  see.

Verse 2:

G             G/B G/D    D7 Em    C  G
'Twas grace that  taught my heart to fear,

    G        A9    A7   D Em7/D D
And grace my fears re - lieved.

G            G/B      C  G/B C G
How precious did that grace  appear

G/B Em   G/D G/D   D7   G
The hour I   first be - lieved.

G          G/B G/D D7   Em   C  G
The Lord has   promised good to me;

    G       A9   A7   D Em7/D D
His word my hope se - cures.

G          G/B        C G/B C    G
He will my shield and por - tion be

G/B Em   G/D G/D  D7   G
As  long as  life en - dures.

Verse 4:

G           G/B G/D   D7    Em    C   G
Through many-   dan - gers, toils and snares

  G      A9 A7 D Em7/D D
I have already come.

G               G/B      C G/B C    G
'Tis grace hath bro't me safe  thus far,

G/B Em    G/D  G/D  D7 G
And grace will lead me home.

Verse 5:

G            G/B G/D   D7  Em  C    G
When we've been  there ten thousand years,

        G       A9 A7  D Em7/D D
Bright, shining as the sun,

G             G/B     C G/B C     G
We've no less days to sing  God's praise

G/B  Em   G/D  G/D   D7   G
Than when we'd first be - gun.
