10 Feb 06 - 11:36 AM (#1666108) Subject: Chord Req: Cohen's Hallelujah From: TheBigPinkLad Sorry if this is in the DT -- I can't find it tho. I'm trying to figure out the chord that fits over line "it goes like this, the fourth the fifth" Anyone? I'm playing: C Am They say that there's a secret chord C Am David found and it pleased the Lord F C But you don't really care for music do you? C Am It goes like this: the fourth the fifth F Am The minor fall the major lift F The battle king composing: hellelujah! etc. Thanks |

10 Feb 06 - 04:46 PM (#1666357) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Cohen's Hallelujah From: TheBigPinkLad Thanks Jeremiah. Starting in G is just the wrong side north or south of my natural voice range. I'd either have to have genes implanted from Barry White, or get a pair of tighter undies. or I could use a capo? ... hmmmm |
11 Feb 06 - 12:40 AM (#1666629) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Cohen's Hallelujah From: Anonny Mouse Well, in C it would be Am-minor fall, Fmaj major lift-but Jeremiah's got it nailed in G. Transposing it to C is pretty easy. |
11 Feb 06 - 07:59 AM (#1666745) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Cohen's Hallelujah From: Jeri Jeremiah's C chord for the 'major lift' sounds better as a D. I might have 'adapted' the tune though. I'm singin' an A note, and it's in the D chord but doesn't sound right with the G in the C chord...or something. Transposing is a valuable skill: (Snuck my change in in italics. Otherwise, it would be an F) Now I've (C)heard there was a (Am)secret chord that (C)David played, and it (Am)pleased the Lord But (F)you don't really (G)care for music, (C)do ya?
