Chords with lyrics

Intro:
 |G+G E minorEm|G+G E minorEm|

1st:
   G+G          E minorEm
I've heard that there's a secret chord

   G+G           E minorEm
That David played and it pleased the Lord

   C majorC         C majorC        G+G     G+G
But you don't really care for music do you'


  G+G           C majorC       D MajorD
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth

   E minorEm         C majorC
The minor fall, the major lifts

   D MajorD          A minorAm      E minorEm
And the baffled King composing Hallelujah

   G+G   C majorC    C majorC   G+G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

   G+G  C majorC   C-G-D-G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

2nd:
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

3rd:
Darling I've been here before
I've seen this room, I've walked these floors
You know I used to live alone before I knew you

I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, Oh yea…

5th:
There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you'

And remember when I moved in you
The Holy Dark was moving too
And every breath you drew was hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

6th:
So maybe there's a God above
But all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

It's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

 G+G   C majorC     C majorC   G+G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

   G+G  C majorC   C-G-D-G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

 G+G   C majorC        C majorC   G+G
Hallelujah, hallelujah

   G+G  C majorC   C-G-D-G
Hallelujah, hallelujah
