Intro-
C Am C Am
C Am
I've heard there was a secret chord
C Am
That David played and it pleased the lord
F G C G
But you don't really care for music, do you?
C F* G* (*= one strum)
It goes like this the fourth, the fifth
Am F
The minor fall, the major lift
G Em Am -stop
The baffled king composing hallelujah
F Am F C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
C Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
C Am
You saw her bathing on the roof
F G C G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
C F* G*
She tied you to her kitchen chair
Am F
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
G Em Am -stop
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
F Am F C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
C Am
Maybe I have been here before
C Am
I know this room and I've walked this floor
F G C G
I used to live alone before I knew you
C F* G*
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Am F
Love is not a victory march
G Em Am -stop
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
F Am F C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
C Am
There was a time when you let me know
C Am
What's real and going on below
F G C G
But now you never show it to me, do you
C F* G*
And remember when I moved in you
Am F
The holy dark was moving too
G Em Am -stop
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
F Am F C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
C Am
Maybe there's a god above
C Am
And all I ever learned from love
F G C G
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
C F* G*
And it's not a cry you can hear at night
Am F
It's not somebody who's seen the light
G Em Am -stop
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
F Am F C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-jah
F Am F C G C -once
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu -u -u -u -jah
