Bridge

F E Am F G Once you get the pattern down you can just use this lead sheet. (The /B is just the second string second fret part of the pattern above, I left them out the later verses because you should have the idea by then). C Am7 C Am7 /B C /B Am7 /B Well I heard there was a secret chord C /B Am7 David played and it pleased the lord /B F G C Am7 But you don't really care for music, do ya? /B C /B F G And it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth Am F G The minor fall and the major lift Am E Am The baffled king composin' "Hallelujah" F Hallelujah Am Hallelujah F Hallelujah C G C Am7 C Am7 Hallelu- jah /B C /B Am7 /B Well your faith was strong but you needed proof C /B Am7 Saw her bathing on the roof /B F G C /B Am7 Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya /B C /B F G And she tied you to a kitchen chair Am F G Broke your throne and cut your hair Am E Am And from your lips she drew "Hallelujah" F Hallelujah Am Hallelujah F Hallelujah C G C Am7 C Am7 Hallelu- jah C Am7 Well baby I've been here before C Am7 I know this room and I walked this floor F G C Am7 You know, I used to live alone before I knew ya C F G And I've seen your flag on the marble arch Am7 F G But love is not a victory march Am E Am It's a cold and it's a broken "Hallelujah" F Well Hallelujah Am Hallelujah F Hallelujah C G F Hallelu- jah E Oh it's just hallelujah Am F G It's just hallelujah C Am7 Maybe there's a God above C Am7 But all I ever learned from love F G C Am7 Was how to shoot somebody who out drew ya C F G And it's not a cry that you hear at night Am F G It's not somebody who's seen the light Am E Am It's a cold and it's a broken "Hallelujah" F Well hallelujah Am Hallelujah F Hallelujah C G Hallelu- u- jah There you have it. Just listen for changes in strumming/picking between verses, they're based of the main pattern. I think that in this recording he probably only plays E and not E major/G# as I have noted above, which is more like the original. Here's the Cohen chord progression, which Street To Nowhere altered only slightly:
