Amazing Grace Guitar Lesson

by Joe Dalton

Performing Amazing Grace on the guitar with the proper feeling is what makes it work. The second chorus adds harmonies in sixths. In the third chorus the A chord is now an Amaj7 and we have added an F#9 chord toward the end. In the fourth chorus, we make use of our C#m power chord with the open strings. There is also a lead in, (walk down) at the end. In the last chorus, there are some more substitutions. The G#m7 chord all at the fourth fret goes to an F#m7. The passing chord is an F#aug7b5b9. Just know that it sounds cool.
