Hallelujah chords *
Leonard Cohen (live London version)

C Am C Am C Am C Am

     C         Am
Now 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
   F
Hallelujah
   Am
Hallelujah
   F
Hallelujah
   C G C  G
Hallelu jah

   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 and 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

   F
Hallelujah
   Am
Hallelujah
   F
Hallelujah
   C G C  G
Hallelu jah

   C        Am
Now, 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
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

   F
Hallelujah
   Am
Hallelujah
   F
Hallelujah
   C G C  G
Hallelu jah

  C         Am
Oh, people, 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

   F
Hallelujah
   Am
Hallelujah
   F
Hallelujah
   C G C  G
Hallelu jah

      C    Am
There was a time 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

   F
Hallelujah
   Am
Hallelujah
   F
Hallelujah
   C G C  G
Hallelu jah

   C        Am
I've done my best, it wasn't much,
 C          Am
I couldn't feel, so I learned to touch
   F            G    C    G
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
  C       F    G
And even though it all went wrong
   Am        F
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
   G       Em       Am
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

   F
Hallelujah
   Am
Hallelujah
   F
Hallelujah
   C G C  G
Hallelu jah

   F
Hallelujah
   Am
Hallelujah
   F
Hallelujah
   C G C  G
Hallelu jah
