Intro: D Bm D Bm

  D                 Bm
I heard there was a secret chord
     D                   Bm
That David played and it pleased the lord
    G                A               D        A
But you don't really care for music, do you? 
        D                  G           A
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
    Bm                 G
The minor fall and the major lift
    A            F#m             Bm
The baffled king composing hallelujah

Chorus:

     G           Bm          G           D    A   D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah .... 

          D                        Bm
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
    D               Bm
You saw her bathing on the roof
    G              A             D            A
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
D                   G       A
She tied you to her kitchen chair
    Bm                        G
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
    A                  F#m            Bm
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah


     G           Bm          G           D    A   D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah .... 

D              Bm
Baby I've been here before
     D                       Bm
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
  G             A             D          A
I used to live alone before I knew you
D                          G      A
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
    Bm                    G
But love is not a victory march
       A               F#m          Bm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

     G           Bm          G           D    A   D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah .... 

     D                         Bm
Well there was a time when you let me know
       D            Bm
What's really going on below
    G             A               D        A
But now you never show that to me do you
      D             G        A
But remember when I moved in you
        Bm            G
And the holy dove was moving too
    A               F#m            Bm
And every breath we drew was hallelujah

      D               Bm
Well, maybe there's a god above
    D             Bm
But all I've ever learned from love
    G                A           D          A
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
     D                  G       A
It's not a cry that you hear at night
     Bm                 G
It's not somebody who's seen the light
       A               F#m          Bm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
   
     G           Bm          G           D    A   D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
