Pretty Amazing Grace by Neil Diamond has been stuck in my head for weeks thanks to local airplay and as neither version is quite right I thought I tab it. This is for one think there's at least three on the track, but I've also tabbed the short guitar break. on's in the bass on the F chord in the verse progressions, and run up from A to C verses and after choruses. Enjoy Intro: x2 //Am /G // Verse 1:
Am                           G
Pretty amazing grace is what you showed me

I was an empty vessel

G                 C
You filled me up inside

And with amazing grace restored my pride

You stood beside a wretch like me

Stumbled inside the doorway of your chapel

Humbled in God by everything I found

When I returned I was rich man

Didn't believe love could quench my thirst

But with amazing grace you showed me that it can

In your amazing grace I had a vision

From that amazing place I came to be

Am               Dm
Into the night I wandered

Wandering aimlessly

F                  G                Am
Found your amazing grace to comfort me.
