A New Hallelujah
These tabs are based on how I play and are not meant to be exact with MWS's authentic
Consider that while you are rating it, please and thank you. Check out the "key" and chord
on the bottom for things that may confuse you. I use strictly power chords on the
electric for this song.
Standard Tuning
Intro chords: F#,G (it's a quick change from the F# to the G; the F# actually gets only
beginning note of each measure, then the rest are G)
Guitar Riff:
e|---------------------------|
B|---------------------------|
G|---------7---7----5-4~~~---|
D|-----/5-5---5--5-----------|

I play that riff throughout the first verse.
Verse 1:
G
Can you hear, there's a new song
Breaking out from the children of freedom
Every race and every nation
Sing it out sing a new Hallelujah
