Intro: B G#m B G#m



  B                 G#m

I heard there was a secret chord

     B                   G#m

That David played and it pleased the lord

    E                F#               B        F#

But you don't really care for music, do you?

        B                  E           F#

Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth

    G#m                 E

The minor fall and the major lift

    F#            Eb m             G#m

The baffled king composing hallelujah



Chorus:



     E           G#m          E           B    

  B

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....



          B                        G#m

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof

    B               G#m

You saw her bathing on the roof

    E              F#             B            F#

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you

B                   E       F#

She tied you to her kitchen chair

    G#m                        E

She broke your throne and she cut your hair

    F#                  Eb m            G#m

And from your lips she drew the hallelujah





     E           G#m          E           B    

  B

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....



B              G#m

Baby I've been here before

     B                       G#m

I've seen this room and I've walked this floor

  E             F#             B          F#

I used to live alone before I knew you

B                          E      F#

I've seen your flag on the marble arch

    G#m                    E

But love is not a victory march

       F#               Eb m          G#m

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah



     E           G#m          E           B    

  C

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....



     B                         G#m

Well there was a time when you let me know

       B            G#m

What's really going on below

    E             F#               B        F#

But now you never show that to me do you

      B             E        F#

But remember when I moved in you

        G#m            E

And the holy dove was moving too

    F#               Eb m            G#m

And every breath we drew was hallelujah



      B               G#m

Well, maybe there's a god above

    B             G#m

But all I've ever learned from love

    E                F#           B          F#

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you

     B                  E       F#

It's not a cry that you hear at night

     G#m                 E

It's not somebody who's seen the light

       F#               Eb m          G#m

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah



     E           G#m          E           B    

  B

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
