I've heard there was a secret chord  That David played, and it pleased the Lord
  Fmaj7Fmaj7      G+G        C majorC
But you don't really care for music, do you?

The baffled king composing "Hallelujah"

   C majorC            A minorAm         C majorC        A minorAm
Your faith was strong but you needed proof  You saw her bathing on the roof
  Fmaj7Fmaj7     G+G       C majorC     G+G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
  C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7 - G+G      A minorAm            Fmaj7Fmaj7
She tied you to a kitchen chair  She broke your throne and she cut your hair
  G+G         E7E7      A minorAm  A minorAm
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Baby I've been here before    I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
 Fmaj7Fmaj7     G+G       C majorC     G+G
I used to live alone before I knew you
C majorC             Fmaj7Fmaj7 - G+G     A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
I've seen your flag on the marble Arch  But love is not a victory march
    G+G        E7E7     A minorAm   A minorAm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know   What's really going on below
  Fmaj7Fmaj7     G+G        C majorC    G+G
But now you never show that to me do you
   C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7 - G+G            A minorAm      Fmaj7Fmaj7
But remember when I moved in you       And the holy dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was hallelujah

Verse 5:
  C majorC       A minorAm         C majorC      A minorAm
You say I took the name in vain   I do not even know the name
  Fmaj7Fmaj7     G+G         C majorC    G+G
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
     C majorC         Fmaj7Fmaj7 - G+G      A minorAm       Fmaj7Fmaj7
There's a blaze of light in every  word   It doesn't matter which you heard
  G+G      E7E7     A minorAm   A minorAm
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Well, maybe there's a god above     But all I've ever learned from love
  Fmaj7Fmaj7      G+G      C majorC     G+G
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
   C majorC         Fmaj7Fmaj7 - G+G      A minorAm         Fmaj7Fmaj7
It's not a cry that you hear at night  It's not somebody who's seen the light
    G+G        E7E7     A minorAm   A minorAm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

 C majorC          A minorAm        C majorC          A minorAm
I did my best, but it wasn't much  I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
   Fmaj7Fmaj7       G+G       C majorC     G+G
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
  C majorC       Fmaj7Fmaj7 - G+G       C majorC        Fmaj7Fmaj7
And even though it all went wrong   I'll stand before the Lord of Song
   G+G       E7E7       A minorAm  A minorAm
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
