[verse]
C# A#m
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
C# A#m
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
F# G# C# G#
But you don't really care for music, do you?
C# F# G#
It goes like this the fourth, the fifth
A#m F#
The minor fall, the major lift
G# F7 A#m
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
F# A#m F# C# G# C# G#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
C# A#m
Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
C# A#m
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 a kitchen chair
A#m F#
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
G# F7 A#m
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
F# A#m F# C# G# C# G#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
C# A#m
You say I took the name in vain
C# A#m
I don't even know the name
F# G# C# G#
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?
C# F# G#
There's a blaze of light in every word
A#m F#
It doesn't matter which you heard
G# F7 A#m
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
F# A#m F# C# G# C# G#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
C# A#m
I did my best, it wasn't much
C# A#m
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
F# G# C# G#
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya
C# F# G#
And even though it all went wrong
A#m F#
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
G# F7 A#m
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[outro]
F# A#m F# C# G#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
F# A#m F# C# G#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
F# A#m F# C# G#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
F# A#m F# C# G# C#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
