Halo - Beyonce

This simple but cool song only has 4 chords in it - but they are challenging ones to enable you to play along in the original key! (Click here for the cheat version!!)

Note the unusual fingering of the D chord. Simpler to just slide the first finger forwards than completely reform the chord.

It may feel awkward at first but try it! you know it makes sense!

The song...

INTRO

A Bm F#m D
A Bm F#m D

A                                       Bm
Remember those walls I built
                                              F#m
Well baby they're tumbling down
                                                 D
And they didn't even put up a fight
                                           A
They didn't even make a sound
                                      Bm
I found a way to let you in
                                       F#m
But I never really had a doubt
                                               D
Standing in the light of your halo
                         A
I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
Woah...etc.

The (Slightly) 'Cheating' Version!

You could use easier chords if you have a 'capo' to stop the strings and transpose your ukulele.

This is a Capo...link on picture to buy one from Omega Music, UK

If you apply a capo to the second fret of the ukulele you can then play Halo with these chords...

But where's the fun in that?!

Practise the Barre chord and do with out the ol' capo!
