    G                Em 
i heard there was a secret chord 
      G                    Em 
that David played and it pleased the Lord 
         C            D              G       D
but you don't really care for music do you? 
         G 
well it goes like this 
     C          D         Em                 C 
the fourth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift 
     D               Bm          Em 
the baffled king composing Hallelujah 
 
      C          Em         C          G D  G   D
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu u jah 
 
            G                       Em
well your faith was strong but you needed a proof 
       G              Em
You?d saw her bathing on the roof 
     C               D              G         D
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you 
     G               C        D
she tied you to her kitchen chair 
      Em                       C
she broke your throne and she cut your hair 
      D                  Bm          Em
and from your lips you drew an Hallelujah 

      C          Em         C          G D  G   D
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu u jah 

 G                 Em 
People, I've been here before 
      G                       Em
i've seen this room and I've walked this floor 
   C             D              G           D
i used to live alone before I knew you 
          G                     C     D
and I've seen your flag on the marble arch 
     Em            C
and love is not a victory march 
        D                Bm         Em
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah 
 
      C          Em         C          G D  G   D
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu u jah 

       G                   Em
There was a time when you let me know 
  G                 Em
what's really going on below 
     C              D              G          D
but now you never show that to me do you? 
       G              C       D
but remember when I moved in you 
         Em                 C
and the holy dove, she was moving too 
     D               Bm            Em
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah 

      C          Em         C          G D  G   D
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu u jah 


  G              Em 
Maybe there's a God above 
    G              Em
but all I've ever learned from love 
     C                   D            G          D
was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew you
          G                  C       D
and it's not a cry that you 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 

      C          Em         C          G D  G   D
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu u jah 
      C          Em         C          G D  G   D
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu u jah 
            G        D
Hallelujah
            G        D
Hallelujah
