[Verse 1]
     C                 Am
I’ve heard there was a secret chord

     C                   Am
That David played and it pleased the Lord

    F                G              C        G
But you don’t really care for music do you?

   C                   F           G
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth

    Am              F
The minor fall, the major lift

    G                Em         Am
The baffled King composing Hallelujah
[Chorus]
     F           Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Verse 2]
      C                        Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof

      C             Am
You saw her bathing on the roof

       F           G              C         G
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

    C             F       G
She tied you to a kitchen chair

    Am                         F
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

    G                  Em            Am
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
[Chorus]
     F           Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Verse 3]
C               Am
Maybe I’ve been here before

  C                    Am
I know this room, I’ve walked this floor

   F             G              C      G
I used to live alone before I knew you

     C                     F      G
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch

Am            F
Love is not a victory march

       G               Em          Am
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah
[Chours]
     F           Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Verse 4]
      C                   Am
There was a time when you let me know

       C            Am
What’s really going on below

     F             G             C      G
But now you never show it to me, do you?

      C             F        G
And remember when I moved in you

    Am            F
The Holy Dove was moving too

    G               Em*           Am
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
[Chours]
     F           Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           C G C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Verse 5]
  C               Am
I did my best, it wasn’t much

    C                 Am
I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch

     F                 G              C       G
I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come to fool ya

    C            F            G
And even tho it all went went wrong

    Am                F
Ill stand before the lord of song

     G              Em             Am
With nothing on my tongue but hallelujah
[Bridge]
    C                 Am
But now I’ve been and lived with you,

     C                  Am
I’ve walked through and through this room,

  F             G               C       G
I couldn’t live alone, before I knew you,

 C               Am
 Maybe there’s a God above

     C          Am
 And all I ever learned from love

     F                G               C       G
 Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

          C                 F       G
 And it’s not a cry you can hear at night

      Am                 F
 It’s not somebody who’s seen the light

        G               Em          Am
 It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah
[Outro]
     F           Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah

     F           C G C
Hallelujah, hallelujah
