Hallelujah - Leonard Cohen

Bijgewerkt op: 14 jun 2025

Hallelujah is een classic (bruiloft) song uit 1984, welk een makkelijk picking partij heeft. Deze partij is een transcriptie van de keys partij. Let bij deze partij erop, dat je de snaren altijg per maat bindt. Hierdoor klinkt het vol en geeft meer een gitaar achtige vibe. Aan het eind van deze song zit een fade out. Misschien kan je als je dit speelt een eigen mooi eind verzinnen, welk dit song een “echte” eind geeft. Succes bij het picken!

Lyrics:


Now I've heard there was a secret chord

That David played, and it pleased the Lord

But you don’t really care for music, do you?

It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth

The minor falls, the major lifts

The baffled king composing Hallelujah


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 her

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


Well, maybe there's a God above

As for me all I've ever learned from love

Is how to shoot somebody who outdrew you

But it's not a crime that you're here tonight

It's not some pilgrim who claims to have seen the Light

No, it's a cold and it's a very broken Hallelujah


Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah


Well people I've been here before

I know this room and I've walked this floor

You see I used to live alone before I knew ya

And I've seen your flag on the marble arch

But listen love, love is not some kind of victory march, no

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah


Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah


There was a time you let me know

What's really going on below

But now you never show it to me, do you?

And I remember when I moved in you

And the holy dove she was moving too

And every single breath we drew was Hallelujah


Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah


Now I've done my best, I know it wasn't much

I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch

I've told the truth, I didn’t come here to London just to fool you

And even though it all went wrong

I'll stand right here before the Lord of song

With nothing, nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah


Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah
