Hey, what's up, Mike?
This is Brett with Mountain Music Lessons.
We're covering the melody [F] line
from Hallelujah today.
We're starting off with our ring finger on the 14th fret.
That's
just two frets past the double dots, right?
So it's the 14th.
And this is the chorus.
[Em]
[Dm]
[F#] And a lot of times what happens in music is you do the same phrase in reverse.
[G] [E]
And then
we do it forwards again.
[Em]
[Dm] And then backwards.
With a little bit of a change at the end.
[F]
So the [E] 15th, 14th, [Bm]
12th, [C] and then 10th.
So that's the chorus.
[F] Now I'm going to break
down the verse for you.
It's really interesting.
It starts [E] out the same.
[A#] On the 14th fret of
the D string, that's the third string from the top.
Ring, and [G] then pointer down.
[A] [Em] That's
I heard there was a [Dm] secret chord.
[F#] Literally, same part again.
[G] That David played, and [Dm] pleased
the Lord.
Now a little bit of a change.
[F#] Pointer on the 12th [Em] fret.
[Dm] But you don't really [G] care.
So that [F#] part right there, I'll repeat.
But [Dm] you don't really care [G] for music, do you?
[E] Then first part again.
[Em] It goes like this.
[F#m] Now a slide.
[Bm] The fifth.
Another slide.
[Fm] The
minor.
The major.
[A#] Another slide.
[E] [Dm]
So [C] [G] I'll stop right there, because that's a little bit tricky.
What we want to do is follow along with our fret [F#] dots.
So I'll do that again.
It goes like this.
The [Dm] fourth.
The [Bm] fifth.
I slid up two frets, and I'm in between my dots.
Then I slide up to the
[C] next dot.
Lift off.
The major [Dm] lift to the next dot.
[D]
The baffled king [E] composing [Cm] hallelujah.
Alright, [E] and then you're back to the chorus.
[A] And then in reverse.
[Em]
[A] In reverse again.
[Dm] A [E] little slide
[C#] to the dot.
Back to where you were.
[D] Pointer finger on the 12th.
[C] And then 10th fret, and we're done.
So you learned the melody line for the entire song [A#] today.
