G G                 Em Em 
I heard there was a secret chord
G G Em Em
That David played and it pleased the lord
C C D D G G D D
But you don't really care for music, do you?
G G C C D D
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
Em Em C C
The minor fall and the major lift
D D B B Em Em
The baffled king composing hallelujah

C C Em Em C C G G D D G G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

G G Em Em
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
G G Em Em
You saw her bathing on the roof
C C D D G G D D
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
G G C C D D
She tied you to her kitchen chair
Em Em C C
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
D D B B Em Em
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

C C Em Em C C G G D D G G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

G G Em Em
Baby I've been here before
G G Em Em
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
C C D D G G D D
I used to live alone before I knew you
G G C C D D
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Em Em C C
But love is not a victory march
D D B B Em Em
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

C C Em Em C C G G D D G G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

A A F#m F#m
Well there was a time when you let me know
A A F#m F#m
What's really going on below
D D E E A A E E
But now you never show that to me do you
A A D D E E
But remember when I moved in you
F#m F#m D D
And the holy dove was moving too
E E C# C# F#m F#m
And every breath we drew was hallelujah


D D F#m F#m D D A A E E A A
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

B B G#m G#m
Well, maybe there's a god above
B B G#m G#m
But all I've ever learned from love
E E F# F# B B F# F#
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
B B E E F# F#
It's not a cry that you hear at night
G#m G#m E E
It's not somebody who's seen the light
F# F# Eb Eb G#m G#m
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
E E G#m G#m E E B B F# F# B B
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
