I just checked out the chords for hallelujah and I noticed something really cool!
You Know the part:
C F
It goes like this, the fourth, the
g
fifth
Am F
The minor fall, the major lift
G E Am
The baffled king composing, hallelujah
He pretty much says the harmony in the lyrics there. F is the fourth and G is the fifth of C. Then A is the relative minor of C and the major third of F. Therefore minor fall and major lift. To me that’s like ridiculously cool!
