intro:
 |G  D|
 |G  D|

1st:
     G                 D
I've heard there was a secret chord
     G                   D
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, the major lift
    D                        Em
The baffled King composing Hallelujah
     C      Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
 C           G-D-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

2nd:
     G                 D  
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
     G                 D
You saw her bathing on the roof
    C                             G   
Her beauty in 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                            G
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
    C          Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
 C            G-D-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

3rd:
     G                 D  
Maybe I've been here before
     G                 D  
I know this room, I've walked this floor
    C                             G   
I used to live alone before I knew you
     G                      C     D
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Em            C       D 
Love is not a victory march
  D                           Em
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
   C         Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
   C          G-D-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

4th:
     G                 D  
There was a time when you let me know
     G                 D  
What's real and going on below
    C                             G   
But now you never show it to me, do you?
     G               C     D
And remember when I moved in you
Em                C      D 
The Holy Dark was moving too
  D                           Em
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
   C           Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
   C          Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

5th:
  G                 D  
Maybe there's a God above
  G                    D  
And all I ever learned from love
    C                               G   
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
     G                      C     D
And it's not a cry you can hear at night
Em                        C      D 
It's not somebody who's seen the light
  D                           Em
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
     C           Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
     C           G-D-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
     C          Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
     C           G-D-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
