[Verse 1]

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 D D G G D D
But you don't really care for music do ya
G G C C D D
It goes like this the fourth the fifth
Em Em C C
the minor fall and the major lift
D D B B Em Em
The baffled king composing hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G D D G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


[Verse 2]

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 D D G G D D
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
G G C C D D
She tied you to a kitchen chair
Em Em C C
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
D D B B Em Em
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G D D G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


[Verse 3]

G G Em Em
Baby, I've been here before
G G Em Em
I know this room Ive walked this floor
C C D D G G D D
I used to live alone before I knew you
G G C C D D
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Em Em C C
But Love is not a victory march
D D B B Em Em
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G D D G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


[Verse 4]

G G Em Em
There was a time you let me know
G G Em Em
What's real and going on below
C C D D G G D D
But now you never show it to me do you?
G G C C D D
I remember when I moved in you
Em Em C C
The holy dark was moving too
D D B B Em Em
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G D D G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


[Verse 5]

G G Em Em
Maybe there’s a God above
G G Em Em
But all I ever learned from love
C C D D G G D D
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
G G C C D D
Its not the cry that you hear at night
Em Em C C
It's not someone who's seen the light
D D B B Em Em
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah
C C Em Em C C G G D D G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


[Verse 6]

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


[Verse 7]

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 D D G G D D
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya
G G C C D D
And even though it all went wrong
Em Em C C
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
D D B B Em Em
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah


[Outro]

C C Em Em C C G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu
C C Em Em C C G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu
C C Em Em C C G G D D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu
C C Em Em C C G G D D G G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu--jah
