[verse]
F Dm
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
F Dm
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
A# C F C
But you don't really care for music, do you?
F A# C
It goes like this the fourth, the fifth
Dm A#
The minor fall, the major lift
C A7 Dm
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
A# Dm A# F C F C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
F Dm
Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
F Dm
You saw her bathing on the roof
A# C F C
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
F A# C
She tied you to a kitchen chair
Dm A#
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
C A7 Dm
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
A# Dm A# F C F C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
F Dm
You say I took the name in vain
F Dm
I don't even know the name
A# C F C
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?
F A# C
There's a blaze of light in every word
Dm A#
It doesn't matter which you heard
C A7 Dm
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
A# Dm A# F C F C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[verse]
F Dm
I did my best, it wasn't much
F Dm
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
A# C F C
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya
F A# C
And even though it all went wrong
Dm A#
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
C A7 Dm
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[outro]
A# Dm A# F C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
A# Dm A# F C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
A# Dm A# F C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
A# Dm A# F C F
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
