“Hallelujah” is a song written by Canadian singer Leonard Cohen, originally released on his album Various Positions (1984). Achieving little initial success, the song found greater popular acclaim through a new version recorded by John Cale in 1991. Cale’s version inspired a 1994 recording by Jeff Buckley that in 2004 was ranked number 259 on Rolling Stone’s “The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time”.
Hallelujah Ukulele Chords by Leonard Cohen
VERSE
Now I’ve Cheard there was a Aminsecret chord That CDavid played, and it Aminpleased the Lord But Fyou dont really Gcare for music, Cdo you?G It Cgoes like this, the Ffourth, the Gfifth TheAmin minor falls, the Fmajor lifts The Gbaffled king E7composing HalleAminlujah
CHORUS
HalleFlujah, HalleAminlujah HalleFlujah, HalleClu-u-Gu-u-Cjah
VERSE
Your Cfaith was strong but you Aminneeded proof You Csaw her bathing Aminon the roof Her Fbeauty and the Gmoonlight overCthrew herG She Ctied you to a Fkitchen chair She Aminbroke your throne, and she Fcut your hair And Gfrom your lips she E7drew the HalleAminlujah
CHORUS
HalleFlujah, HalleAminlujah HalleFlujah, HalleClu-u-Gu-u-Cjah
VERSE
Well Cpeople I’ve beenAmin here before I Cknow this room and I’ve Aminwalked this floor You see I Fused to live Galone before I Cknew yaG And I’ve Cseen your flag on the Fmarble Garch But listen Aminlove, love is not some kind of vicFtory march, no It’s a Ccold and it’s a E7broken HalleAminlujah
CHORUS
HalleFlujah, HalleAminlujah HalleFlujah, HalleClu-u-Gu-u-Cjah
VERSE
Well there Cwas a time when you Aminlet me know
What’s Creally going Aminon below
But Fnow you never Gshow it to me, Cdo you?G And I Cremember when I Fmoved in Gyou And the Aminholy dove she was Fmoving too And Gevery single breath we E7drew was HalleAminlujah
CHORUS
HalleFlujah, HalleAminlujah HalleFlujah, HalleClu-u-Gu-u-Cjah
VERSE
Well, Cmaybe there’s a AminGod above As for me Call I’ve ever Aminlearned from love Is Fhow to shoot someGbody who outCdrew youG But it’s Cnot a cry that you’re Fhear at Gnight It’s Aminnot some pilgrim who claims to have Fseen the Light No, it’s a Gcold and it’s a very E7broken HalleAminlujah
CHORUS
HalleFlujah, HalleAminlujah HalleFlujah, HalleClu-u-Gu-u-Cja
HalleFlujah, HalleAminlujah HalleFlujah, HalleClu-u-Gu-u-Cjah.
