The minor fall and the major lift

The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
C chordC Am chordAm
You saw her bathing on the roof
F chordF G chordG C chordC G chordG
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
C chordC F chordF G chordG
She tied you to a kitchen chair
Am chordAm F chordF
She broke your throne and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Baby I've been here before

I remember when I moved in you,

And the holy dove was moving too,

and every breath we drew was Hallelujah.

F chordF Am chordAm
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

C chordC Am chordAm
Now, maybe there's a God above,
C chordC Am chordAm
As for me, all I ever learned from love
F chordF G chordG C chordC G chordG
Is how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.
C chordC F chordF G chordG
It's no complaint you hear tonight,
Am chordAm F chordF
It's not some pilgrim who's seen the light
G chordG Em7 chordEm7 Am chordAm
It's a cold and it's a very lonely Hallelujah.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
F chordF C chordC G chordG C chordC G chordG
Hallelujah, Hallelu-uuu-uujah
