G Em G Em

  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                  C           D
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
    Em                 C
The minor fall and the major lift
    D            B7             Em
The baffled king composing hallelujah
     C           Em          C           G    D   G      Em G Em
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

           G                        Em
Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof
    G               Em
You 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                  B7            Em
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
     C           Em          C           G    D   G      Em G Em
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

G               Em
Baby, 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
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
    Em               C
But love is not a victory march
       D               B7          Em
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
     C           Em          C           G    D   G      Em G Em
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

            G                   Em
Well, 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 was moving too
    D               B7            Em
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
     C           Em          C           G    D   G      Em G Em
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

      G               Em
Well, maybe there's a god above
    G             Em
But all I've ever learned from love
    C                D           G          D
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
     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               B7          Em
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

     C           Em

     C           Em          C           G    D   G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
