C C Am Am
Well 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 ya?
C C F F G G
It goes like this, the 4th, the 5th,
Am Am F F
The minor fall and the major lift,
G G Em Em Am Am
The baffled king composing hallelujah,
F F Am Am F F C C G G C C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu------jah

Am Am C C Am Am

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 ya,
C C F F G G
She tied you to her kitchen chair,
Am Am F F
She broke your throne and she cut your hair,
G G Em Em Am Am
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah,
F F Am Am F F C C G G C C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu------jah

Am Am C C Am Am

C C Am Am
Well baby I've been here before,
C C Am Am
I know this room and I've walked this floor,
F F G G C C G G
I used to live alone before I knew ya.
C C F F G G
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch,
Am Am F F
And love is not a victory march,
G G Em Em Am Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah,
F F Am Am F F C C G G C C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu------jah

Am Am C C Am Am

C C Am Am
There was a time when you let me know,
C C Am Am
What's really going on below,
F F G G C C G G
But now you never show it to me do ya.
C C F F G G
Well remember when I moved in you,
Am Am F F
And the holy dove was moving too,
G G Em Em Am Am
And every breath we drew was hallelujah,
F F Am Am F F C C G G C C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu------jah

Am Am C C Am Am

C C Am Am
Maybe there is a God above,
C C Am Am
But all I ever learned from love,
F F G G C C G G
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew ya.
C C F F G G
And it's not a cry you can hear and night,
Am Am F F
It's not somebody who's seen the light,
G G Em Em Am Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah,
F F Am Am F F C C G G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-jah

F F Am Am F F C C G G C C
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu------jah
