[Intro]
C Am C Am

[Verse 1]
C Am
I heard there was a secret chord
C Am
That David played and it pleased the lord
F G C G
But you don’t really care for music, do you?
C F G
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
Am F
The minor fall and the major lift
G E7 Am
The baffled king composing hallelujah

[Chorus]
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ….

[Verse 2]
C Am
Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof
C Am
You saw her bathing on the roof
F G C G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
C F G
She tied you to her kitchen chair
Am F
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
G E7 Am
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

[Chorus]
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ….

[Verse 3]
C Am
Baby, I’ve been here before
C Am
I’ve seen this room and I’ve walked this floor
F G C G
I used to live alone before I knew you
C F G
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
Am F
But love is not a victory march
G E7 Am
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah

[Chorus]
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ….

[Verse 4]
C Am
Well, there was a time when you let me know
C Am
What’s really going on below
F G C G
But now you never show that to me do you
C F G
But remember when I moved in you
Am F
And the holy dove was moving too
G E7 Am
And every breath we drew was hallelujah

[Chorus]
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ….

[Verse 5]
C Am
Well, maybe there’s a god above
C Am
But all I’ve ever learned from love
F G C G
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
C F G
It’s not a cry that you hear at night
Am F
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light
G E7 Am
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah

[Outro]
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ….
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ….
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ….
Am F G C
Halleluuuuuuujah

Pretty cool song to train some C F G Am chord transitions. 😀 I will use this mostly as an exercise since I still suck at guitar. I like having some melody and rhythm and not just switching chords. Thank you for the lovely video.

What the hell Jeff Buckley!
"Hallelujah" is a song written by Canadian singer Leonard Cohen, originally released on his album Various Positions (1984). Achieving little initial success,[1] the song found greater popular acclaim through a new version recorded by John Cale in 1991.

Strum the chords. The picking makes it drastically somber. Strum it and it sounds so much more empathetical.

Zivai Marangarire says:

You are a star, Kurt!

aldo manoel says:

Muito bom parabéns

DarkMaster says:

I like the original better.

Jeroen Jansen says:

Half of the tutorial is about the intro with 2 chords!🙄Lyrics and melody with the chords please, otherwise it is a meaningless sequence of chords. C, Am,C, Am, C, Am, C, Am, C, Am, C, Am, C, Am etc. etc. etc.
