Standard Tuning
Intro: D Bm D Bm
DBm
I heard there was a secret chord
DBm
That David played and it pleased the lord
GADA
But you don't really care for music, do you?
DGA
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
BmG
The minor fall and the major lift
AF#mBm
The baffled king composing hallelujah
Chorus:
GBmGDAD
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
DBm
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
DBm
You saw her bathing on the roof
GADA
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
DGA
She tied you to her kitchen chair
BmG
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
AF#mBm
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
GBmGDAD
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

DBm
Baby I've been here before
DBm
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
GADA
I used to live alone before I knew you
DGA
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
BmG
But love is not a victory march
AF#mBm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
GBmGDAD
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
DBm
Well there was a time when you let me know
DBm
What's really going on below
GADA
But now you never show that to me do you
DGA
But remember when I moved in you
BmG
And the holy dove was moving too
AF#mBm
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
DBm
Well, maybe there's a god above
DBm
But all I've ever learned from love
GADA
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
DGA
It's not a cry that you hear at night
BmG
It's not somebody who's seen the light
AF#mBm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
GBmGDAD
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
