G Em
I’ve heard there was a secret chord
G Em
That David played and it pleased the Lord,
C G D
But you don’t really care for music Do you?
G C D
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth.
Em C
The minor fall and the major lift.
D Bm Em
The baffled King composing Hallelujah.
Chorus:
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
C G D G D
Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.
G Em
Your faith was strong but you needed proof.
G Em
You saw her bathing on the roof,
C G D
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you.
G C D
She tied you to a kitchen chair.
Em C
She broke your throne, she cut your hair.
D Bm Em
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah.
Chorus:
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
C G D G D
Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.
G Em
Maybe I have been here before,
G Em
I know this room, I’ve walked this floor,
C G D
I used to live alone before I knew you,
G C D
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch,
Em C
Love is not a vict’ry march.
D Bm Em
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah.
Chorus:
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
C G D G D
Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.
G Em
There was a time when you let me know
G Em
What’s really going on below,
C G D
But now you never show it to me Do you?
G C D
And remember when I moved in you,
Em C
The holy dark was moving too.
D Bm Em
And ev’ry breath we drew was Hallelujah.
Chorus:
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
C G D G D
Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.
G Em
Maybe there’s a God above
G Em
And all I ever learned from love
C G D
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.
G C D
And it’s not a cry you can hear at night,
Em C
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light.
D Bm Em
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
Chorus:
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
C G D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
C G D G
Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.
