Verso 
   G                  Em7 
I heard there was a secret chord 
       G                  Em7 
That david played and it pleased the lord 
     C                 D               G              D 
But you don't really care for music, do you 
   G                         C           D 
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth 
       Em7               C 
The minor fall and the major lift 
        D            B       B   Em7 
The baffled king composing hallelujah 

 
     C           Em        C         G  D   G      D 
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah .... 


Verso 
   G                  Em7 
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof 
       G                  Em7 
You saw her bathing on the roof 
C          D             G              D 
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you 
G                    C           D 
She tied you to her kitchen chair 
       Em7               C 
She broke your throne and she cut your hair 
        D            B       B   Em7 
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
C           Em        C         G  D   G      D 
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah .... 


Verso 
   G                  Em7 
Baby i've been here before 
       G                  Em7 
I've seen this room and i've walked this floor 
C        D           G              D 
I used to live alone before i knew you 
G                    C           D 
I've seen your flag on the marble arch 
       Em7               C 
But love is not a victory march 
      D            B       B   Em7 
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah 

 
     C           Em        C         G  D   G      D 
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah .... 


Verso 
   G                  Em7 
Well there was a time when you let me know 
   G                  Em7 
What's really going on below 
C        D           G              D 
But now you never show that to me do you 
G                  C           D 
But remember when i moved in you 
       Em7               C 
And the holy dove was moving too 
      D            B       B   Em7 
And every breath we drew was hallelujah 

 
     C           Em        C         G  D   G      D 
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah .... 


Verso 
   G                  Em7 
Well, maybe there's a god above 
   G                  Em7 
But all i've ever learned from love 
C        D           G              D 
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you 
G                C             D 
It's not a cry that you hear at night 
       Em7               C 
It's not somebody who's seen the light 
      D            B       B   Em7 
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah 

 
     C           Em        C         G  D   G      D 
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah ....
