               HALLELUJAH - Alicia Keys
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuning: Standard

NO CAPO

Reference (LIVE SNL PERFORMANCE): Check the video.

Epic live performance from Alicia Keys! So glad she is back and releasing new music

The bass player also kills it in this performance, very walking(?) bass-heavy track
in some parts - I don't play the bass so it's a bit hard for me
to get all the correct bass notes to tab

NOTE:
Please also correct me if the chords I am using for flats/sharps are wrong or out of key,
I'm decent at figuring out what's being played but my music theory is pretty garbage.
