Lyrics

One time a (F#m)round the block,

two times a round the pot,

three times, don’t (F#m)cross your lit tle la dy.

So pret ty and, oh, so bold, got a (A)heart full of gold on a (E)lone ly road.

She say, “I don’t e ven (F#m)think that God can save me.”

Am I gain ing ground?

Am I los in’ face?

Am I lost and found, my sav in’ grace?

Thank ful for the (F#m)gift my an gels gave me.

Born a lone, we die a lone.

Now, I’m just sit tin’ here (E)by the phone

wait in’ for the (F#m)Lord to send my call in’.

Street wise from the bou le vard.

(A)Je sus on ly knows that she tries too hard.

She’s on ly try’n’ to (F#m)keep the sky from fall in’.

And an y man who says there’s (F#m)heav en and hell

prob ’ly got some thin’ (E)use less to sell.

You ask me if I’m (F#m)saved, but what’s it to (A)ya?

Blow a quar ter, cop (F#m)an oth er eighth.

You’re (A)run nin’ out of high.

You (E)los in’ your faith.

Just throw your hands (F#m)up and scream hal le lu (A)jah,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah, a (E)men.

One time a (F#m)round the sun, an (A)oth er year old er and my (E)work ain’t done.

It’s time for me to (F#m)write the fi nal chap ter.

Deal the cards and (F#m)roll the dice; sex, (A)drugs and rock and roll are my (E)on ly vice.

Try’n’ to fig ure (F#m)out just what’s here af ter,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah,

hal le lu jah, a (E)men.

Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.

Yes. The original is in F#, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "Saving Grace" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
