[C] [Am]
[C] [Am]
[C] I've heard there was [Am] a secret chord [C] that David played [Am] and it pleased the Lord, [F] but you don't
really [G] care for music, [C] do you?
[G]
[C] It goes like this, [F] the [G] fourth, the fifth, [Am] the minor fall, [F] the major lift, [G] the baffled
king [Em] composing [Am] Hallelujah,
[F] Hallelujah,
[Am] Hallelujah,
[F] Hallelujah, [C] [G]
[C] Hallelujah.
[G]
[C] Your faith was strong [Am] but you needed proof, [C] you saw her [Am] bathing on the roof, [F] her beauty
in [G] the moonlight [C] overthrew you.
[G]
[C] She tied you to [F] a [G] kitchen chair, [Am] she broke your throne, [F] she cut your hair, [G] and from your
lips she [Em] drew the [A] Hallelujah, [Am]
[F] Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.

[C] [G]
[C] [G]
[C] Maybe I have [Am] been here before, [C] I know this room, [Am] I've walked this floor, [F] I used to live
[G] alone before [C] I knew you.
[G] I've [C] seen your flag on [F] the [G] marble arch, [Am] love is not [F] a victory march, [G] it's a cone and it's
a [Em] broken [A] Hallelujah, [Am]
[F] Hallelujah,
[Am] Hallelujah,
[F] Hallelujah,
[C] [G] Hallelujah.
[C] [G]
[C] There was a time [Am] you let me know [C] what's real and going [Am] on below, [F] but now you never [G] show
it to [C] me, do you?
[G]
And [C] remember when [F] I [G] moved in you, [A] the holy dark [F] was moving too, [G] and every breath we [Em] drew
was [A] Hallelujah, [Am]
[F] Hallelujah, [Am] Hallelujah,
[F] Hallelujah,
[C] [G] Hallelujah.
[C] [G]
[C] Maybe [Am] there's a God above [C] and all I ever [Am] learned from love [F] was how to shoot at [G] someone who [C] outdrew you.
[G]
And [C] it's not a cry [F] you can [G] hear at night, [Am] it's not somebody [F] who's seen the light, [G] it's
a call and it's a [Em] broken [A] [Am] Hallelujah,
[F] Hallelujah,
[Am] Hallelujah,
[F] Hallelujah,
[C] [G] Hallelujah,
[C] [F] Hallelujah,
[Am] Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
[F] Hallelujah, [C] Hallelujah.
