[Verse 1]
 
 D      D/F#       G         D
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
     D                  A
That saved a wretch like me
  D        D/F#      G       D
I once was lost, but now I'm found
    D         A    D
Was blind but now I see
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
    D            D/F#      G        D
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
     D              A
And grace my fears relieved;
  D          D/F#     G        D
How precious did that grace appear,
    D      A       D
The hour I first believed!
 
 
[Chorus]
 
              G                   D/F#
My chains are gone, I've been set free.
        G                      D/F#
My God, My Savior has ransomed me.
           G              D/F#
And like a flood his mercy reigns.
         Em   A        D/F#
Unending love, amazing grace
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
    D        D/F#      G      D
The Lord has promised good to me,
     D              A
His word my hope secures;
  D        D/F#       G        D
He will my shield and portion be,
   D       A       D
As long as life endures.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
              G                   D/F#
My chains are gone, I've been set free.
        G                      D/F#
My God, My Savior has ransomed me.
           G              D/F#
And like a flood his mercy reigns.
         Em   A        D/F#
Unending love, amazing grace
 
              G                   D/F#
My chains are gone, I've been set free.
        G                      D/F#
My God, My Savior has ransomed me.
           G              D/F#
And like a flood his mercy reigns.
         Em   A        D/F#
Unending love, amazing grace
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
     D          D/F#    G           D
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
    D               A
The sun forbear to shine;
  D          D/F#      G       D
But God, who called me here below,
     D     A     D
Will be forever mine.
       D    A     D
(Will be forever mine)
     D      A    D
(You are forever mine)

if you think you know so much about the song, submit your own chords. this is my version. no matter the chords, it's all about Jesus!

it's not that i refuse to correct it, because i don't even play it this way anymore. i made these chords when i was in my guitar learning infancy. i now agree that the chords aren't accurate. this was my first chords from scratch. what i was saying earlier, about making your own chords, i was just confused about how people correct others so much and refrain from making their own version of the type. i am not refusing correction because i am stubborn, but because i am lazy. but, if all of you want me to change it so badly, i will
