_ Amazing grace, _ _
[F] how sweet [C] the sound _ that saved [Am] a wretch [G] like [C] _ [G] me.
[C] Oh, I once [C] was lost, [F] _
but [C] now I'm found.
[Am] _
Was [C] blind, [G] but [C] now I see.
[Am] _ _ _ [C] _
It was grace that taught [F] my _ [C] heart to fear, _ and [G] grace [Am] my fears _ [G]
relieved.
[D] _ [G] _ _ [F] [C] Oh, how precious _ did [F] that grace [C] appear the [Am] _
hour [C] I first [G] [C] believed.
Help us out if you [F] know this song.
_ _ [C] _
[F] Amazing [C] grace, [F] how sweet [C] the [F] sound [C] that [G] saved [Am] a wretch [G] like _ _ [F] me.
Oh, [C] I once [C] was lost, [F] but now [C] I'm found.
[Am] Was blind, [G] [C] but now [G] [C] I see.
_ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [C] I've been singing this song a long time.
As long as [Am] I can remember even singing songs at all.
[G] _
_ [D] _ [Dm] [G] And I guess it's become my [C] favorite song over the years because,
not just because of what it says, but because of [F] who it's by.
_ [C] This man that wrote this [Am] song used [C] to be the captain of a slave [G] ship.
[C]
And he used to sail people [F] from Africa all over the world and sell them to other [C] folks.
But out in the middle of the ocean one night with a boat full [F] of people,
he [C] changed his mind and turned the boat around.
_ _ [Am] _ He sailed [G] everybody back home.
And then he sailed back to his home in England and started writing [C] these songs.
_ That man might have lived a long time ago, but [F] he's a friend of mine tonight.
_ [C] Because anybody who's not [Am] afraid to turn around, that's a [C] friend of mine tonight.
[G] [C] And that's not just individual people, but [F] there's cities and towns and states [C] and countries.
_ _ [Em] _ [F]
We can't ever let [C] anything make us afraid to turn around and do something right.
That's because there's a [Am] whole lot of stuff in this world that needs to be [G] turned around.
_ [D] _ [G] _ _ _ [C]
But the funny thing is if you can't do it for you, [F] well then you can't do it for the world.
_ [C] _ _ _ [Am]
And before I go tonight [C] I just want to [G] thank [F] God for my friend Steve Goodman,
[C] who didn't have a whole lot of turning around to do.
If you ever saw him, if you ever listened to [F] a record or heard him on the [C] radio, _ _ _
_ [Am] made you feel good about living, [G] told you funny stories, made you laugh at other people and yourself,
_ [C] crawled somehow deep in you, but never put you down, _ [F]
that's a beautiful [C] guy.
_ _ [Am] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ [C] _
_ _ [F] _ _ [C] Shall I be walking [F]
to [C] the sky _ _
On [Am] flowery beds [G] of _ [D] [G] ease
_ [F] _ [C] _
While others strive _ [F] to win [C] the prize
_ [Am]
And sail on [G] bloody [C] _
seas
[F] _ _ [C] _
Amazing _ grace, [F] how sweet [C] the sound
That _ [Am] saved a wretch [G]
like _ _ me
[F#]
[C] When once [Am] was lost, [F] but now [C] am found
_ Was blind, but now [F] I _ _ see
[C] _ Amazing _ _ grace, [F] how sweet [C] the sound
That saved [G] [Am] a wretch [G] like _ _ me
[C] When _ [Am] once [C] was lost, [F] but now [C] am found
[Am] Was blind, [C] but [G] now I [F] see
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ Goodnight, God bless y'all. _
