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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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

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.
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.
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!
I just remove my pinky from the the g chord and add my thumb on the top. I am missing half of my index finger so I’m not sure what finger that would be for you
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/
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.)
