Hallelujah

LEONARD COHEN

Immerse yourself in the emotion and power of Hallelujah, an iconic song written by Leonard Cohen in 1984, which gained popularity thanks to covers by John Cale and Jeff Buckley.

This work, which has become a true secular anthem, has marked the history of music with more than 300 recorded versions.

The cover of Alexandra Burke, winner of The X Factor in 2008, brought a new dimension to this song, reaching the first place of the British charts.

I chose to transcribe this unique interpretation for its emotional depth and powerful impact.

Lyrics ▼

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?

Well it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
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 you

She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya

And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not someone who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah

(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah
(Hallelujah) hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
