G G                   Em Em
I heard there was a secret chord
G G Em Em
that David played and it pleased the Lord,
C C G G
But you don't really care for music do you.
G G C C D D
It goes like this the fourth the fifth,
Em Em C C D D
the minor fall and the major lift
DEm
The baffled king composing hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G-D D-G G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja




G G Em Em
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
G G Em Em
You saw her bathing on the roof
C C AM AM G G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
G G C C D D
She tied you To a kitchen chair
Em Em C C D D
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
D D Em Em
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G-D D-G G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja




G G Em Em
You say I took the name in vain
G G Em Em
I don't even know the name
C C AM AM G G
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
G G C C D D
There's a blaze of light In every word
Em Em C C D D
It doesn't matter which you heard
D D Em Em
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G-D D-G G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja



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


C C Em Em C C G G-D D-G G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja
