Intro: B | G#m | B | G#m

     B                 G#m
I’ve heard there was a secret chord
     B                   G#m
That David played and it pleased the Lord,
    E                F#             B       F#
But you don’t really care for music do you?
   B                   E           F#
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth.
    G#m                E
The minor fall and the major lift.
    F#              Ebm         G#m
The baffled King composing Hallelujah.

Chorus:
          E           G#m
     Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
          E           B  F# B   F#
     Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.

     B                        G#m
Your faith was strong but you needed proof.
    B               G#m
You saw her bathing on the roof,
    E             F#            B          F#
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you.
    B             E         F#
She tied you to a kitchen chair.
    G#m                    E
She broke your throne, she cut your hair.
    F#                   Ebm         G#m
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah.

Chorus:
          E           G#m
     Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
          E           B  F# B   F#
     Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.

B                 G#m
Maybe I have been here before,
  B                    G#m
I know this room, I’ve walked this floor,
  E               F#          B         F#
I used to live alone before I knew you,
     B                     E      F#
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch,
G#m           E
Love is not a vict’ry march.
       F#                Ebm       G#m
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah.

Chorus:
          E           G#m
     Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
          E           B  F# B   F#
     Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.

      B                   G#m
There was a time when you let me know
       B             G#m
What’s really going on below,
    E             F#           B        F#
But now you never show it to me do you?
      B             E        F#
And remember when I moved in you,
    G#m           E
The holy dark was moving too.
    F#              Ebm           G#m
And ev’ry breath we drew was Hallelujah.

Chorus:
          E           G#m
     Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
          E           B  F# B   F#
     Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.

B               G#m
Maybe there’s a God above
    B          G#m
And all I ever learned from love
    E                 F#           B         F#
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.
         B                 E       F#
And it’s not a cry you can hear at night,
     G#m                E
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light.
       F#                Ebm       G#m
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
   
Chorus:
          E           G#m
     Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
          E           B F#
     Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
          E           G#m
     Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
          E           B  F# B
     Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah.
