Here's my arrangement of the simple yet beautiful song 'Hallelujah', originally composed by Leonard Cohen. I've been playing this song like this for years, but never thought to make it into a video until now! And yes, I got a haircut :P

[@maimascurobert6796]

Nice cover. I love the religious songs very much. Btw, your new look is awesome.

[@manasacharya8944]

One my all time favorites! Beautiful song! Beautiful cover bruh!!!

[@aolawiet2389]

[@ditaprasasti5736]

+James Bartholomew Great Song, great cover! Your work is shocking me as always. And, your haircut is awesome, suit you!

+James Bartholomew pleaasee make a play through. And keep up the good work ✌🏻️

[@user-pp3dg5zg3f]

Well 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? 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 Well your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya She tied you to her kitchen chair And she broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Well it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth The minor fall and the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah Hallelujah [x4] 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 [x4] Baby I've been here before I've seen this room and I've walked this floor (you know) I used to live alone before I knew you And I've seen your flag on the marble arch And love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah [x4] There was a time when you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me, do you? But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah Hallelujah [x4] Maybe there's a God above All I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah Hallelujah [x13] Songwriters: Leonard Cohen
