When She Sang Amazing Grace Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Am][D]

[Verse 1]
When I was a [D]child,
mama'd hold me
In her [G]lovin' arms when the storm
clouds come [D]along
Dark clouds rising, storms a ragin
She would [A]sing an old gospel song
[D]

[Verse 2]
With the thunder crashing
and lightning, flashing
I found [G]comfort in the words
that she would [D]sing
Beyond these dark skies
there's a rainbow
That only [A]love and the sun'll [D]bring

[Verse 3]
When she [D]sang Amazing [G]Grace
I felt tears in [D]my eyes
When she sang Circle Be Unbroken
Lord, I [A]knew there's bluer skies
[D]

[Verse 4]
Time rolled on, the circle was broken
[G]Mama went on to somewhere
beyond the [D]blue
I started ramblin' that lost highway
And hard livin' took away
[A]the little child she[D] knew

[Verse 5]
Yeah, I started drinkin'
and I started gamblin'
I had [G]no one to look over [D]me
There was no blue skies, only sorrow
I could only hear her [A]sing in my

memory

[Verse 6]
I was [D]runnin' with a wild bunch
[G]Hanging with the rough and the rowdy [D]kind
I was livin' fast, and I was dying young
So alone, Lord I [A]had a worried mind
[D]

[Verse 7]
I was drunk and I was hurtin'
[G]Somewhere on the streets
in New Or[D]leans
When I stumbled into a little shelter
I saw an [A]angel with a tambourine
