G Em
I heard there was a secret chord
G Em
that David played and it pleased the Lord,
C G
But you don't really care for music do you.
G C D
It goes like this the fourth the fifth,
Em C D
the minor fall and the major lift
D Em
The baffled king composing hallelujah
C Em C G-D-G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja
G Em
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
G Em
You saw her bathing on the roof
C AM G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
G C D
She tied you To a kitchen chair
Em C D
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
D Em
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
C Em C G-D-G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja

G Em
You say I took the name in vain
G Em
I don't even know the name
C AM G
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
G C D
There's a blaze of light In every word
Em C D
It doesn't matter which you heard
D Em
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
C Em C G-D-G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja
G Em
I did my best, it wasn't much
G Em
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
C AM G
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
G C D
And even though It all went wrong
Em C D
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
D Em
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
C Em C G-D-G
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja
