Song Help Request Leonhard Cohen - Hallelujah

UkuleleApe · Jun 14, 2008

can someone give me the chords (or tabs if available) of the song "hallelujah"

from Leonhard Cohen (or Jeff Buckley)? I need the chords for the uke, not for

the guitar, cause if i use the guitar tabs it sounds a bit weird....

thanks guys!

this is one of the first songs i learned to play on my ukulele. the chords are the same regardless of what instrument you play it on. i used these chords and they sound just fine.

Great song. It was in Shrek too.

I would play it in the key of F. This means that the verse is low (not as low as Cohen though) and the chorus is high. Too many people sing the chorus an octave lower and takes away some of the drama of the song.

Here's how it starts:

Verse F|Dm|F|Dm|Bb|C|F|C|F|BbC|Dm|Bb|C|A7|Dm|Dm|

Chorus Bb|Bb|F|F|Bb|Bb|F etc.

I think I may record it soon.
