  D                G         D      
A-mazing grace how sweet the sound  
                         A7   
that saved a wretch like me.  
  D                  G      D       
I once was lost, but now am found,  
              A7    D     
was blind but now I see.  
   
      D                    G        D      
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,  
                      A7       
and grace my fears re-lieved.  
    D                 G     D        
How precious did that grace appear,  
           A7       D        
the hour I first be-lieved.  
   
     D                    G         
When we've been there ten thousand  
D                           A7   
years bright shining as the sun  
      D               G          D        
We've no less days to sing God's praise,  
               A7       D     
Than when  we  first be-gun.  
   
        D             G         D        
Through many dangers, toils and snares,  
               A7     
I have already come.  
     D                     G         D     
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,  
               A7      D      
and grace will lead me home.  
   
  D                G         D      
A-mazing grace how sweet the sound  
                    A7        
that saved a wretch like me.  
   
  D                  G      D       
I once was lost, but now am found,  
              A7    D     
was blind but now I see.  
  D                  G      D       
I once was lost, but now am found,  
              A7    D     
was blind but now I see.
