[verse]
D# Cm
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
D# Cm
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
G# A# D# A#
But you don't really care for music, do you?
D# G# A#
It goes like this the fourth, the fifth
Cm G#
The minor fall, the major lift
A# G7 Cm
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
G# Cm G# D# A# D# A#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
D# Cm
Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
D# Cm
You saw her bathing on the roof
G# A# D# A#
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
D# G# A#
She tied you to a kitchen chair
Cm G#
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
A# G7 Cm
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
G# Cm G# D# A# D# A#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
D# Cm
You say I took the name in vain
D# Cm
I don't even know the name
G# A# D# A#
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?
D# G# A#
There's a blaze of light in every word
Cm G#
It doesn't matter which you heard
A# G7 Cm
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
G# Cm G# D# A# D# A#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
D# Cm
I did my best, it wasn't much
D# Cm
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
G# A# D# A#
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya
D# G# A#
And even though it all went wrong
Cm G#
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
A# G7 Cm
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[outro]
G# Cm G# D# A#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
G# Cm G# D# A#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
G# Cm G# D# A#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
G# Cm G# D# A# D#
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
