This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

Artist: Newsboys

CD: Step Up to the Microphone

Title: Hallelujah

Transcribed by: Jae Ogilvie

I use a 5-string, so if you only have a 4-string, you'll have to drop-D

tune and transpose where necessary. I've done my best to get this right,

but like all bass players, Phil Joel and Jody Davis (the Newsboys'

bassists), mix in some other notes too. This should get you well on your

way though. Any comments, suggestion or critiques can be sent to

JaeO@ovation.net. Keep on playing for God, he gets a big old grin on his

face when you do!
