As I am learning to play the uke and piano in my early senior years, this video has been such a tremendous boost for me. It’s challenging but very enjoyable to play along to. I’m so glad I found it. Thank you.
One way to play 432123 is thumb down on 4, then up with index, middle, ring,middle,index. This results in 3/4 time. If you are really a beginner, you will find keeping up with the chords hard enough with just strumming.
Try picking C, E, G, A, G, E, C, (3-2-4-1-4-2) over and over as a pattern for each chord during the main parts. It fits perfectly and I bet it will make you sleepy. It did for me. It's like a lullaby. 😔🎶
@@renniven5021 The song is in 6/8, so you need a 6 note pattern to work with equal note lengths. Or use unequal lengths such as 2---4-3---1-. Which seems to work, but the feeling is different.
This is incredible. Best way to learn yet. HOWEVER. The arrow should appear on top of the chord exactly when it comes in. The chord progression shown on the screen tells us what the next chord is.
Cohen's interpretation of Hallelujah. "'Halleluja' is a Hebrew word that means 'praise God'. The song is saying that there are many other kinds of praise. All perfect and incomplete praises have the same value. Not doctrinally, but It is to start from your inner passion and feelings and strengthen your beliefs in life. When one looks at the world and looks back at one's life, the only words that can be spoken are Hallelujah
If this is too fast, or your a beginner at fingerpicking, I recommend playing at .75x playback speed and then going back to normal. Also, if you haven't yet, see if you can works for you.
That is beautiful. I am sure she would love that just as much as she loved you. Peace. I learned this version and just played it for my 86 yo mother, since she couldn't go to church. It was the first time I ever played an entire song, or in front of anyone other than my mirror. She cried... I cried
if you have a guitar and feel like the ukulele is not loud enough. You can use a capo on a guitar to play in the same positions and notes as a ukulele. To do this, place the capo on the 5th fret and play only the bottom four strings of the guitar.
yes! i written down the lyrics + the chords here it is xD c am c am (intro) c am c am f g c g c f,g am f g am am f c f c g c i heard theree was a special place where man could go emancipate the brutality and the tyranny of their rulers this place is real u needn't fret with wilbur tommy tubbo f*ck eret its a very big and not so blown up lmanburg my lmanburg my lmanburg my lmanburg my lman ahahahahan burg
Hi, How do i pluck the Half "F" & "G" cord @ 3.21? my plucking pattern is 123432? Thank you for this wonderful guide as it is the easiest and the first song i learn on Ukelele.
Not sure how to contact. I am very thankful for your ukulele videos. I have had such a good time learning. I have 2 requests - So This Is Love and Say You Won't Let Go.
newbie here, for anyone doing the fingerpicking method for playing this song, what do you do for the bridge? do you switch to strumming for that part (specifically in reference to the quick C to F to G to Am section). Thanks!
Yes, it's in fast 6/8 time: ONE two three FOUR five six, but you can strum it like 4/4 by counting just the ONE and FOUR of the 6/8 time, so it's: ONE . . TWO . . THREE . . FOUR . . over two measures of 6/8 time. (Aside: a surprising number of pop songs are in this kind of quick 6/8 with only the 1 & 4 beats coming thru strong, most things you ever slow danced to, for instance, and LOTS of Beatles tunes.)
Listen to a recording of the song over and over again. The lyrics will stick in your head Or, here is a version with the words, just change out the Em for the E7, or play it with either chord ukutabs.com/l/leonard-cohen/hallelujah/ This site has a lot of uku songs. Print them to .pdf, print them out and start a song notebook
There are two versions with slightly different words. This is the Jeff Buckley version (better known version) ukutabs.com/j/jeff-buckley/hallelujah-four/
Ya intenté de mil maneras y acabo de encontrar un rasgueo que en lo personal me gusta mucho, aclaro que estoy aprendiendo , pero me gustó. Había intentado dos veces hacia abajo lento, pero se escucha raro. Me gustó dos veces lento hacia abajo y al cambio subo una vez , es decir hacia arriba, y así en cada nota. Y en dónde muestra las notas de los trastos pequeños es uno hacia abajo y cambias al siguiente . Espero te sirva, repito ando aprendiendo y es el rasgueo que me ha gustado. Espero me supe explicar.
Pai, eu quero Te amar Tocar o teu coração, E me derramar aos Teus pés … Mais perto quero estar, Senhor E te adorar com tudo o que eu sou E Te render glória e aleluia … Aleluia, aleluia Aleluia, aleluia … Quando lutas vierem me derrubar Firmada em Ti eu estarei Pois tu és meu refúgio, ó Deus … E não importa onde estiver No vale ou no monte adorarei A Ti eu canto glória e aleluia … Aleluia, aleluia Aleluia, aleluia … Senhor, preciso do Teu olhar Ouvir as batidas do Teu coração Me esconder nos Teus braços, ó Pai … Toda minh'alma deseja a Ti Junto com os anjos cantarei Tu és Santo, exaltado, aleluia! … Aleluia, aleluia Aleluia, aleluia
I'm playing the lmanburg version lmao. Putting the lyrics here for simplicity pls ignore and have a nice day stranger Well I heard there was a special place Where men could go and emancipate The brutality and the tyranny of their rulers Well this place is real, we needn't fret With Wilbur, Tommy, fuck Eret It's a very big and not blown up L'manburg My lmanburg My lmanburg My lmanburg My lmaaaaanburg

Keep strummin'!
i wanted to learn this for lmanburg lol and realised i had it in my ukulele book from two years ago so we all set
strumming is dddud in case you needed it! and for the quick f-g chords, its one down for f and one down for g!
Ally Marie thanks alot! :D
Ally Marie I
How can you play so much with every chord? Doesn't it ruin the mood of the song?
It’s should be like that to make the song work
sks i’m so late but i do ddud
Strumming pattern is dduu for everyone wondering :)) every time I’ve preformed this that’s what I’ve used and it matches perfectly
@Sophie Bowen yes
@Sophie Bowen but not for the hallelujah part thats single strum
I use DDU
tysm
can we all agree lyric video makers and tab makers are the backbone of society
You can make it easy by fingerpicking! Just go: 123432 every note! :D Than you are in line with the piano and it sounds soooo good...!
432123 also sounds good.
just thumb? or what fingers? sorry newbie here
One way to play 432123 is thumb down on 4, then up with index, middle, ring,middle,index. This results in 3/4 time. If you are really a beginner, you will find keeping up with the chords hard enough with just strumming.
I do A string, E string, C string for every note bc I suck at uke lol but it sounds nice
Thank you so much!! It took me some practice, but now I fingerpick with this pattern and it sounds FANTASTIC!
The Christmas version of this song is absolutely gorgeous. The Easter version is stunning as well.
Try picking C, E, G, A, G, E, C, (3-2-4-1-4-2) over and over as a pattern for each chord during the main parts. It fits perfectly and I bet it will make you sleepy. It did for me. It's like a lullaby. 😔🎶
Hii does 2-4-3-1 also work? My fingers are more comfortable with it for some reason TuT
@@renniven5021 The song is in 6/8, so you need a 6 note pattern to work with equal note lengths. Or use unequal lengths such as 2---4-3---1-. Which seems to work, but the feeling is different.
@@PetrHosek Thanks buddy I got it now!
Fingerpicking pattern is GCEAEC repeat for each note
This helped so much! Thank you!
Most useful comment and person on RUclips right now! LOL
Thanksss
What do you do for the quick F and G chords?
DoubleJJam I know I’m not Christina, but what I did was just GCE for the short g and f cords.
This is the best tutorial ever! I adore the idea of getting the chords as long as the song is playing...)))
Keep strummin'!
Thank you for doing this playalong. It sounds so good with finger picking!
Ooooo...record yourself doing that version and post a link here in the comments!!! I'd love to hear it! Keep strummin'...and pickin'! =)
Hallelujah is my favorite song ❤❤❤ 0:49
This is incredible. Best way to learn yet. HOWEVER. The arrow should appear on top of the chord exactly when it comes in. The chord progression shown on the screen tells us what the next chord is.
i use DD UU and on the fast change i do single strums. i also Do a single strum on the last c chord in the song.
For beginners (like me): strumming down slowly sounds also good.
Hallelujah is my favorite song
Love your version! Love the 'little' chords to show to just hit them quick and move on. Thank you!
Thanks for the feedback...that's helpful for my uke group too, so glad it's helpful for you. Keep strummin'!
@@DrJillReese Hey Doc, this is still one of faves, and one I am trying to try to play without the screen aids.
Ahhh, ganhei um "muito bem", filhas me aprovaram kkkkk, uff saiu um sonzinho. Obrigada pela didática !!!!
Beautiful! Tremendous format. Great video. Thanks Dr. R, Thank you Mr. Cohen...
The way I strum it is "DDUUDU" and for the fast F-G I do 1 down strum for both. In case anyone wanted another way (:
My strum patterns is a mix of DDUUD and DDUDD (with no specific sequence, I tend just do switch whenever I feel to)

Fantastic video! You just made this song so easy to play. Thank you so much.
I am learning how to play this lovely instrument. I adore It. I don't know why it brakes my heart
I suggest picking. ( G C E A E C) dont pick them at the same time tho except the ones they made smaller pluck all the strings at the same time once
This song sounds really good if you hold down the C string and smash your ukulele against the wall to a 3/4 tempo
the poor ukulele
I can finally play along to the song without having to hear my terrible voice thank you now I can play along with the real thing
haha
im learning this song so i can go to my grandmas grave after the virus and play this for her
That is beautiful. I am sure she would love that just as much as she loved you. Peace. I learned this version and just played it for my 86 yo mother, since she couldn't go to church. It was the first time I ever played an entire song, or in front of anyone other than my mirror. She cried... I cried
@@jimjeup675 im planning to go to the church that my grandma went to for most of her life and they knew her well but im a bit stage fright
I’m doing it for my father. Best of luck to you, friend
Shes gonna roll in her grave and say "cringe".

Thanks, it really helped me learn some songs!
I just do finger plucking 123432 but idk what to do on those quick chords...
if you have a guitar and feel like the ukulele is not loud enough. You can use a capo on a guitar to play in the same positions and notes as a ukulele. To do this, place the capo on the 5th fret and play only the bottom four strings of the guitar.
When I play this song I use two down strums per note. Just a suggestion.
Clara Colburn thanks I’m trying to learn this song and since it’s not mentioned in the video this helps a lot
I use one down and a light strum up. It sounds the same. They both work fine. But that is what I use
I did that I knew IT when IT started
Clara Colburn that’s also what I do but one strum I suggest you try it!
Me too
i do fingerpicking 123432 (every number is the string)

Hi, How do i pluck the Half "F" & "G" cord @ 3.21? my plucking pattern is 123432? Thank you for this wonderful guide as it is the easiest and the first song i learn on Ukelele.
Only GCE
I can't tell which I love more... Rufus Wainwright or Jeff Buckley rendition... Thoughts?
Not sure how to contact. I am very thankful for your ukulele videos. I have had such a good time learning. I have 2 requests - So This Is Love and Say You Won't Let Go.
So cool
💕💕🙏
great song for practicing guitar finger picking
Hello!Beautiful Ukulele Sound!
I subscribed to your page.
since when is hallelujah played so fast
MonkeyMusic This has always been the tempo for this version
I thought so too but then someone said you can change the settings in the RUclips tool box
I know
Since you tried playing on the ukulele, it feels faster to me as well
This was wonderful! Thank you!
I love this song. I think I found my ringtone
thanks so much this is immaculate
newbie here, for anyone doing the fingerpicking method for playing this song, what do you do for the bridge? do you switch to strumming for that part (specifically in reference to the quick C to F to G to Am section). Thanks!
Timing is 6/8 so should be DudDud DudDud i think but i'm new at this so could be wrong but sounds good
It could be 2 sets of triplets, depends on the song
Yes, it's in fast 6/8 time: ONE two three FOUR five six, but you can strum it like 4/4 by counting just the ONE and FOUR of the 6/8 time, so it's: ONE . . TWO . . THREE . . FOUR . . over two measures of 6/8 time.
(Aside: a surprising number of pop songs are in this kind of quick 6/8 with only the 1 & 4 beats coming thru strong, most things you ever slow danced to, for instance, and LOTS of Beatles tunes.)
@ok Sorry, no. It's in 6/8, as any copy of the sheet music will tell you.
Best version!!!
why cant i stop playing it ???
A great video, thanks!!!!
Cuál es el rasgueo?
this really helped! thx
Chord's:
C,G,Am,E7,F
super fun and easy to play!!!!!!!!!
Does anyone have any good strumming patterns?
strumming suggestions would be helpful thank you!
And 123432 fingering
Lol sorry ik this reply is 2 years late but I find DDDUD works well and for the quick F and G, I do one down strum each.
I just sing hallelujah it has an acoustic song so the man just plays the piano and he just sang it was a duet
This is awesome!
Apareceu de sugestão do vídeo do utc, eu cliquei e tô aqui
Thx I need these cords 4 school
Normal people: Hallelujah
Legends: Shrek
Gods: L'manberg anthem
Yes I'm a god
Same
Actually shrek is supposed to be last
Gracias
Good play along. It would be better if words were with cords. I can’t focus on two area at the same time.
Listen to a recording of the song over and over again. The lyrics will stick in your head

Yup!
Very good! Tks

Strumming pattern DDU-DDU and in halleluyah part strumming pattern is DU DDU DU
Strumming pattern is dduu
gen z just here to learn how to play the l'manberg anthem, and i am also guilty of it
Oh God I've been found
Yep, the only fictional nation I’ve ever felt patriotic for besides Narnia.
no
I don’t know how to play the G
I love this song
dduu worked well for me
Pai, eu quero Te amar
Tocar o teu coração,
E me derramar aos Teus pés

Mais perto quero estar, Senhor
E te adorar com tudo o que eu sou
E Te render glória e aleluia

Aleluia, aleluia

Firmada em Ti eu estarei
Pois tu és meu refúgio, ó Deus

No vale ou no monte adorarei
A Ti eu canto glória e aleluia
…
Aleluia, aleluia
Aleluia, aleluia
…
Senhor, preciso do Teu olhar
Ouvir as batidas do Teu coração
Me esconder nos Teus braços, ó Pai
…
Toda minh'alma deseja a Ti
Junto com os anjos cantarei
Tu és Santo, exaltado, aleluia!
…
Aleluia, aleluia
Aleluia, aleluia
I used ddud for the strumming! :)
Ciao potresti pubblicare il tutorial della canzone "because you love me" di Celine Dion??? Pleaseeeeee 😍
favolosa, complementi.
what is the strum?
Hey, im know nothing about music to be honest, but i cant stop thinking that the E7 sounds super wierd, is that okay
Your'e right. It should be E minor.
I'm playing the lmanburg version lmao. Putting the lyrics here for simplicity pls ignore and have a nice day stranger
Well I heard there was a special place
Where men could go and emancipate
The brutality and the tyranny of their rulers
Well this place is real, we needn't fret
With Wilbur, Tommy, fuck Eret
It's a very big and not blown up L'manburg
My lmanburg
My lmanburg
My lmanburg
My lmaaaaanburg
I use d dudu for everything and the quick f and g are two fast d. Not super fast. Generally to the tempo. His notes are too fast at times
My favorite strumming pattern for this: DDDUD (1 down strum for the quick F and G)
It was fast to begin with but the chorus was faster than the verse. Anyone else notice?
I've seen versions where Em replaced E7. Which is better?
Em is correct and is what you hear
I use 231413 it sounds really good
The key is too low for me .. any female version?
Jeong seyoon playing in the key of g is better for higher voices :) Cynthia Lin’s tutorial is in the key of G.
just put a capo on . it changes the key but not the chord shapes
don't know how many strokes per cord kinda messes me up.
CatLady LovesCats try the fingerpickings
