Hallelujah (Cover on youtube) Written by: Leonard Cohen Performed by: Jeff Buckley Cover by: Phil Wickham Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Q00mWa0_ig Contact: [email protected] This is an overview of what Phil Wickham uses to play Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah", which is probably the most original and beautiful cover that I've ever seen of the song. I tried to make it as accurate as possible. It may seem very confusing at first, but I placed all of the alternate chords in there so that the song would be easier to play and also more accurate to the way he played it. Enjoy!
