Cohen Leonard - Hallelujah guitar tab

Well, this is how I play it, in G. I'm more familiar with the version that

John Cale did on the I'm Your fan tribute, which was in C, but that's too

much of a pain in the ass for me. Transpose it down a fifth if you wish.

G Em

I heard there was a secret chord

G Em

that David played and it pleased the Lord,

C G

But you don't really care for music do you.

G C D

It goes like this the fourth the fifth,

Em C D

the minor fall and the major lift

D Em

The baffled king composing hallelujah

C Em C G-D-G

Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja

Easy.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya

She tied you to a kitchen chair

She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain

I don't even know the name

But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?

There's a blaze of light in every word

It doesn't matter which you heard

The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much

I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch

I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya

And even though it all went wrong

I'll stand before the Lord of Song

With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah

(from Various Positions, 1984)
