Verse:
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?
Pre-Chorus:
C F G
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
Am F
The minor fall, the major lift
G Em Am
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Chorus:
F Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
F C–G–C–C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Verse:
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 in the moonlight overthrew you
Pre-Chorus:
C
She tied you
F G
To a kitchen chair
Am
She broke your throne,
F
she cut your hair
G Em Am
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Chorus:
F Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
F C–G–C–C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Verse:

Maybe I’ve been here before
C Am
I know this room, I’ve walked this floor
F G C G
I used to live alone before I knew you
Pre-Chorus:
C F G
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
Am F
love is not a victory march
G Em Am
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah

F Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Verse:
C Am
There was a time you’d 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?
Pre-Chorus:
C F G
Remember when I moved in you?
Am F
The holy dark was moving too
G Em Am
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
Chorus:
F Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
F C–G–C–C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Verse:
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
It’s not a cry you can hear at night
Am F
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light
G Em Am
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
