This is my first ever tab and can't find any tabs to show how he plays it live, any constructive feedback
would be appreciated.
This picking pattern is 6-3-2-3 throughout the whole song. When the D and Am chord is played the picking is 4-
3-2-3. The timings should come along easy when listening to the song.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am C G D Oh I’m in pieces it’s tearing me up but I know Am C G D A heart that’s broke is a heart that’s been loved
[Chorus 1]
G Bm C So I’ll sing Hallelujah D G Bm C You were an angel in the shape of my mum D When I fell down you’d be there Em C G D Holding me up, spread your wings as you go Em C G D And when God takes you back, he’ll say Hallelujah, you’re home

G Bm C I fluffed the pillows, made the beds, stacked the chairs up G Bm C Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case D Em D C G John said he’d drive then put his hand on my cheek C D G And wiped a tear from the side of my face
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am C G D And I hope that I see the world as you did cause I know Am C G D A life with love is a life that’s been lived
[Chorus 2]
G Bm C So I’ll sing Hallelujah D G Bm C You were an angel in the shape of my mum D When I fell down you’d be there Em C G D Holding me up, spread your wings as you go Em C G D And when God takes you back, he’ll say Hallelujah, you’re home
[Chorus 3]
G Bm C Hallelujah G Bm C You were an angel in the shape of my mum Em C G D You got to see the person I have become, spread your wings and I know that when Em C G D G God took you back, he said Hallelujah, you’re home
