The Opposite Of Hallelujah by Jens Lekman
The Opposite Of Hallelujah
Capo:no capo
I'm not going to tab the part after the first chorus (starts at about 2:07)
because
are no chords, it's just
strings and bass and from the videos I've seen, Lekman leaves that part out when
solo.
Intro
C Am G F x4
Violin part (intro and repeated later)
e|3---3-3-3--1--0-1-3-3-8---0-0-0---------0-0---|
B|---------------------------------3--1-3-------|
e|3---3-3-3--1--0-1-3-3-8---0-0-0---------0-----|

Verse
C G
I took my sister down to the ocean
C Am G
But the ocean made me feel stupid
F C
Those words of wisdom I had prepared
F D
All seemed to vanish into thin air
G F Em Dm
Into the waves I stared
C Am G F x4 with violin part
C G
I picked up a seashell to illustrate my homelessness
C Am G
But a crab crawled out of it making it useless
F C
And all my metaphors fell flat
F D
Down on the rocks where we sat
G F Em Dm
She asked where are you at?
Chorus
C Am G
But sister, it's the opposite of hallelujah
F C
It's the opposite of being you

You don't know 'cause it just passes right through you
F C Am G
You don't know what I'm going through

You don't know what I'm going through
F C Am G
You don't know what I'm going through
F C Am G
You don't know what I'm going through
Verse
C G
We made our way home on the bikes we had borrowed
C Am G
I still never told you about unstoppable sorrow
F C
You still think I'm someone to look up to
F D
I still don't know anything about you
G F Em Dm
Is it in you too?
Pre-Chorus
C Am G F
You've got so much to live for, little
C Am G F
sister, You've got so much to live for
Chorus
C Am G
But sister, it's the opposite of hallelujah
