G Em7 I've heard there was a secret chord G Em7 That David played, and it pleased the Lord C D G D But you don't really care for music, do you? G It goes like this C D The fourth, the fifth Em C The minor fall, the major lift D H Em The baffled king composing Hallelujah
C Em C G D G Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you She tied you To a kitchen chair She broke your throne, and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Maybe I've been here before I know this room, I've walked this floor I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch love is not a victory march Its a cold and its a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
There was a time you'd let me know What's real and going on below Remember when I moved in you? The holy dark was moving too And every breath we drew was hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Maybe there's a God above And all I ever learned from love was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you Its not a cry you can hear at night Its not somebody who's seen the light Its a cold and its a broken hallelujah
