This is a popular hymn that has a new modern chorus. You can just use the chords for the verses, however, if you’d like!
“A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” is a classic hymn often played with a modern chorus, and this A Mighty Fortress chord chart gives guitar players a simple way to lead it in a contemporary worship setting. The song carries a strong, declarative feel and works well in both traditional and modern services, whether you use just the verses or include the added chorus for a fuller arrangement.
The chords follow a straightforward, hymn-style progression that’s easy to pick up on acoustic guitar or with a full band. Once you have the structure down, it’s more about keeping a steady tempo and letting the melody lead. You can play it in the key of C as written or adjust with a capo depending on your vocal range. This chart is available in the key of C.
