Amazing Grace (12th position) Harmonica Tabs

4 (5) (6) (6) 6 (5) (4) 4
A maz ing grace, how sweet the sound

(4) (5) (6) (6) 6 7
That saved a wretch like me

(6) 7 (6)(5)(6) 6 (5) (4) 4
I once was lost, but now am found

4 (4) (5) (6) (6) 6 (5)
Was blind, but now I see

Notes: This version of “Amazing Grace” has been published in “Rock n’
Blues Harmonica” by Jon Gindick, and is arranged by John McLaughlin
from WA. (I just thought I’d share such a great tab- hope I’m not
breaking any laws.)

– It is played in 12th position, and on a C harp that would be the key
of F.

– Since this is such a simple song, variations can be added like in
djlactose’s version- instead of [4 (5) (6) (6)] for the first line,
you can use [4 (5) (6) 6 (5) (6)]. Hand effects also prove very good
for articulation on this piece, and my favorite bit of improv would be
adding a headshake to the last note (F)- using a 4 draw in addition
with the 5 draw [(4)(5)(4)(5)…].
