Hallelujah, performed by Jeff Buckley
Standard Tuning, Capo 5
G Em
i heard there was a secret chord
G Em
that David played and it pleased the Lord
C D G Em
but you don't really care for music do you?
G
well it goes like this
C D Em C
the fourth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift
D Bm Em
the baffled king composing Hallelujah
C Em C G D/F# G
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
G Em
well your faith was strong but you needed proof
G Em
you saw her bathing on the roof
C D G Em
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
G C D
she tied you to her kitchen chair
Em C
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
D Bm Em
and from your lips you drew an Hallelujah
C Em C G D/F# G
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

G Em
baby I've been here before
G Em
i've seen this room and I've walked this floor
C D G Em
i used to live alone before I knew you
G C D
and I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Em C
and love is not a victory march
D Bm Em
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
C Em C G D/F# G
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
G Em
there was a time when you let me know
G Em
what's really going on below
C D G Em
but now you never show that to me do you?
G C D
but remember when I moved in you
Em C
and the holy dove was moving too
D Bm Em
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah
C Em C G D/F# G
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
G Em
maybe there's a God above
G Em
but all I've ever learned from love
C D G Em
was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew you
G C D
and it's not a cry that you hear at night
Em C
it's not somebody who's seen the light
D Bm Em
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
C Em C G D/F# G
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuu
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuuujah
