We're crying.

In a tribute that will tug at your heartstrings, Chris Cornell's daughter performed Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" on Good Morning America Friday, according to ABC News.

Toni Cornell, 12, duetted with OneRepublic, dedicating the performance to her father and Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington, who was close friends with Cornell and sang it at the artist's funeral.

"It’s an honor to perform this for my dad and Chester and to sing for them," she said.

"Chester sang this at Chris’ funeral, and this is arguably one of the greatest songs written in the last 50 years," OneRepublic's singer Ryan Tedder said. "It’s a very special song to us, and I think to most people and especially to Toni [Cornell] as well."
