Chords

[Intro] F Dm F Dm [Verse 1]
  F                 Dm
I heard there was a secret chord

      F                   Dm
That David played and it pleased the Lord

    Bb               C              F      C
But you don't really care for music do you?

         F
Well it goes like this

       Bb        C         Dm               Bb
The fourth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift

     C             A7           Dm
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
[Chorus]
     Bb         Dm         Bb         F C F
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu..jah
[Verse 2]
          F                        Dm
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof

    F               Dm
You saw her bathing on the roof

    Bb             C             F        C
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya

    F               Bb      C
She tied you to her kitchen chair

    Dm                        Bb
She broke your throne and she cut your hair

    C                  A7           Dm
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
[Chorus]
     Bb         Dm         Bb         F C F
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu..jah
[Verse 3]
    F             Dm
You say I took the name in vain

F            Dm
I don't even know the name

   Bb             C                  F       C
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?

          F                 Bb    C
There's a blaze of light in every word

   Dm             Bb
It doesn't matter which you heard

    C           A7          Dm
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
     Bb         Dm         Bb         F C F
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu..jah
[Verse 4]
F                 Dm
I did my best, it wasn't much

  F                   Dm
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch

     Bb                C               F      C
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya

    F              Bb       C
And even though it all went wrong

     Dm               Bb
I'll stand before the lord of song

     C             A7              Dm
With nothing on my tongue but hallelujah
[Outro]
     C           Em          C            G   D
