Intro:
B G#m
I heard there was a secret chord
B G#m
That David played and it pleased the lord
E F# B F#
But you don't really care for music, do you?
B E F#
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
G#m E
The minor fall and the major lift
F# Ebm G#m
The baffled king composing hallelujah
Ref.:
B E G#m E B
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
B G#m
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
B G#m
You saw her bathing on the roof
E F# B F#
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
B E F#
She tied you to her kitchen chair
G#m E
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
F# Ebm G#m
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
B E G#m E B
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
B G#m
Baby I've been here before
B G#m
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
E F# B F#
I used to live alone before I knew you
B E F#
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
G#m E
But love is not a victory march
F# Ebm G#m
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
C E G#m E B
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
B G#m
Well there was a time when you let me know
B G#m
What's really going on below
E F# B F#
But now you never show that to me do you
B E F#
But remember when I moved in you
G#m E
And the holy dove was moving too
F# Ebm G#m
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
B G#m
Well, maybe there's a god above
B G#m
But all I've ever learned from love
E F# B F#
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
B E F#
It's not a cry that you hear at night
G#m E
It's not somebody who's seen the light
F# Ebm G#m
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
B E G#m E B
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
