              Intro: 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 
hallelujah,  hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-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 
hallelujah,  hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-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 
hallelujah,  hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-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 
hallelujah,  hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-jah.

G                  Em 
Well, maybe there is 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        G    D     G 
hallelujah,  hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-jah, 
      C          Em          C        G    D      G 
hallelujah,  hallelujah, hallelujah, halleluuuu-jah.
