C C                 Am Am
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
C C Am Am
That David played and it pleased the Lord
F F G G C C G G
But you don't really care for music, do you?
C C F F G G
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth,
Am Am F F
The minor fall, the major lift,
G G E E F F
The baffled king composing, Hallelujah.


F F Am Am F F
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
C C G G C C G G
Hallelu - jah.


C C Am Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof,
C C Am Am
You saw her bathing on the roof:
F F G G C C G G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you.
C C F F G G
She tied you to a kitchen chair,
Am Am F F
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair,
G G E E Am Am
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah.


F F Am Am F F
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
C C G G C C G G
Hallelu - jah.


C C Am Am
You say I took the name in vain,
C C Am Am
Though I don't even know the name,
F F G G C C G G
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
C C F F G G
There's a blaze of light in every word,
Am Am F F
It doesn't matter which you heard:
G G E E F F
The holy or the broken Hallelujah.


F F Am Am F F
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
C C G G C C G G
Hallelu - jah.


C C Am Am
I did my best, it wasn't much,
C C Am Am
I couldn't feel so I tried to touch.
F F G G C C G G
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you.
C C F F G G
And even though it all went wrong
Am Am F F
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
G G E E F F
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah.


F F Am Am F F
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
C C G G C C G G
Hallelu - jah.

Agreed that the E should be Em. Also, the F after the E sound better as an Am. Try it!

E should be an Em. It sounds better and is much easier to play.
