[Verse]
E C#m
I heard there was a secret chord
E C#m
That David played and it pleased the lord
A B E B
But you don't really care for music, do you?
E A B
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
C#m A
The minor fall and the major lift
B Ab m C#m
The baffled king composing hallelujah
[Chorus]
A C#m A E B E
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
[Verse]
E C#m
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
E C#m
You saw her bathing on the roof
A B E B
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
E A B
She tied you to her kitchen chair
C#m A
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
B Ab m C#m
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
[Chorus]
A C#m A E B E
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
[Verse]
E C#m
Baby I've been here before
E C#m
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
A B E B
I used to live alone before I knew you
E A B
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
C#m A
But love is not a victory march
B Ab m C#m
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
[Chorus]
A C#m A E B E
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
[Verse]
E C#m
Well there was a time when you let me know
E C#m
What's really going on below
A B E B
But now you never show that to me do you
E A B
But remember when I moved in you
C#m A
And the holy dove was moving too
B Ab m C#m
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
[Verse]
E C#m
Well, maybe there's a god above
E C#m
But all I've ever learned from love
A B E B
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
E A B
It's not a cry that you hear at night
C#m A
It's not somebody who's seen the light
B Ab m C#m
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
[Chorus]
A C#m A E B E
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
