*Hi, This song was originally written by John Newton in 1779
But this version is ordinary sung a capella and is performed and transposed by Judy Collins.
(scuse my english i'm french ^^')
You can play it on guitar with the guitar tuned a half step below standard
tuning. Or play with barred and so play the chords a semitone below
So, without special tuning and with barred, the chords become:
E => D#
A => G#
B7 => A#7
AEmazing Grace, how Asweet the Esound,
That saved a wretch like B7me.
I Eonce was lost but Anow am Efound,
Was blind, but B7now I Esee.
ET'was Grace that taught my Aheart to Efear.
And Grace, my fears reB7lieved.
How Eprecious did that AGrace apEpear
The hour I B7first beElieved.
EThrough many dangers, Atoils and Esnares
I have already B7come;
'Tis EGrace that brought me Asafe thus Efar
and Grace will B7lead me Ehome.
The ELord has promised Agood to Eme.
His word my hope seB7cures.
He Ewill my shield and Aportion Ebe,
As long as B7life enEdures.
EYea, when this flesh and Aheart shall Efail,
And mortal life shall B7cease,
I Eshall possess withAin the Eveil,
A life of B7joy and Epeace.
EWhen we've been here ten Athousand Eyears
Bright shining as the B7sun.
EWe've no less days to Asing God's Epraise
Than when we've B7first beEgun.
Enjoy :)
