Chords

Amazing Grace and Alas and Did My Savior Bleed Because the two songs follow the same syllabic pattern, you can play them both to the same tune. I have provided the chords for the tune of Amazing Grace. The ninth verse is my own addition. [Verse 1]
 G      G7         C         G
Amazing grace! how sweet the sound,

                          D
That saved a wretch; like me!

  G        G7        C      G
I once was lost, but now am found,

    Em         D     G
Was blind, but now I see.
[Verse 2]
 G      G7         C         G
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

                      D
And grace my fears relieved;

    G        G7       C       G
How precious did that grace appear

    Em     D        G
The hour I first believed!
[Verse 3]
 G      G7         C         G
Through many dangers, toils, and snares,

                 D
 We have already come.

       G         G7         C         G
'Twas grace hath brought us safe thus far

    Em         D       G
And grace will lead us home.
[Verse 4]
 G        G7     C      G
Alas! and did my Savior bleed?

                     D
And did my Sov’reign die?

      G    G7        C      G
Would He devote that sacred head

    Em     D       G
For such a worm as I?
[Verse 5]
    G      G7        C     G
Was it for sins that I had done

                    D
He groaned upon the tree?

 G      G7    C       G
Amazing pity! grace unknown!

    Em     D      G
And love beyond degree!
[Verse 6]
     G         G7     C        G
Well might the sun in darkness hide,

                     D
And shut his glories in,

     G     G7      C     G
When the incarnate Maker died

    Em       D          G
For man, His creature’s sin.
[Verse 7]
     G       G7      C        G
Thus might I hide my blushing face

                       D
While His dear cross appears

   G        G7       C       G
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,

    Em        D       G
And melt mine eyes to tears.
[Verse 8]
    G        G7        C       G
But drops of grief can ne’er repay

                   D
The debt of love I owe;

     G       G7     C     G
Here Lord, I give myself away:

     Em       D     G
’Tis all that I can do.
[Verse 9]
  G         G7        C        G
I pray that God would guide my steps

                   D
And keep me in His way

     G       G7       C       G
That I might homeward run the race

    Em    D         G
And enter my Lord's joy.
[Verse 10]
     G          G7        C        G
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,

                      D
Bright shining as the sun,

      G       G7      C          G
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise

     Em      D     G
Than when we first begun.
