G Em G Em
G Em
I’ve heard that there’s 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 ya?
G C D
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
Em C
The minor fall, the major lift
D Am Em
The baffled King composing Hallelujah
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C G D G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
G Em G Em
G Em
Well 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 ya.
G C D
She tied you to her kitchen chair
Em C
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
D Am Em
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C G D G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
G Em G Em
G Em
Darling I’ve been here before
G Em
I’ve seen this room, I’ve walked these floors
C G D
You know I used to live alone before I knew ya.
G C D
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
Em C
Love is not a victory march
D Am Em
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C G D Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
D G Em G Em C D G D
Oh yeah…
G Em G Em
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 ya?
G C D
And remember when I moved in you
Em C
The Holy Dove was moving too
D Am Em
And every breath you drew was Hallelujah
C Em
It was Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C Em D G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
G Em
So maybe there’s a God above
G Em
But all I ever learned from love
C G D
Was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew ya.
G C D
It’s not a cry that you hear at night
Em C
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light
D Am Em
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
C Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C G D C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
G
Hey, Hallelujah
