Chord Chart #1
Amazing Grace

A A D A
A - ma - zing Grace how sweet the sound

A A E E
That saved a rebel* like me

A A D A
I once was lost, but now I'm found.

A E A A
Was blind, but now I see.

*Note from David I know the original lyric here is 'wretch', and it's actually a great, very descriptive word.
However, when we recorded this in the studio, I blew it and sang 'rebel'. So, it stuck around for the rest of this
lesson. Still accurate, but not original!
