I heard there was a secreat chord,
C Am
That David played and it pleased the Lord,
F G C G
But you don't really care for music,do ya ?
C F G
It goes like this, the 4th, the 5th,
Am F
The minor fall and the major lift,
G E7 Am
The baffled king composing hallelujah,
F / Am / F / C G C G
Hallelujah, x5
C Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof,
C Am
You saw her bathing on the roof,
F G C G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya,
C F G
She tied you to her kitchen chair,
Am F
She broke your throne and she cut your hair,
G E7 Am
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah,
F / Am / F / C G C G
Hallelujah, x5
(SOLO – 1 COUPLET)
C Am
Maybe there is a God above,
C Am
But all I ever learned from love,
F G C G
Was how to shoot at somebody who out drew ya.
C F G
It's not a cry you hear at night,
Am F
It's not someone who's seen the light,
G E7 Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah,
F Am F C G
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-jah
F / Am / F / C G C G
Hallelujah, x5
