Hallelujah Chords Jeff Buckley

**Chords:**
C  Am  C  Am  
C  Am  C  Am  
F  G  C  E  
Am  F  C  G  

C                     Am  
I've heard there was a secret chord  
C                       Am  
That David played, and it pleased the Lord  
F             G               C         E  
But you don't really care for music, do you?  
Am               F           C       G  
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth  
       Am          F  
The minor falls, the major lifts  
     C                G            C  
The baffled king composing Hallelujah  

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

C                     Am  
Well, maybe there’s a God above  
C                       Am  
But all I’ve ever learned from love  
F             G               C          E  
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you  
Am               F           C       G  
And it’s not a cry that you hear at night  
       Am          F  
It’s not someone who’s seen the light  
     C                G            C  
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah  

C                     Am  
Well, people, I’ve been here before  
C                       Am  
I know this room and I’ve walked this floor  
F             G               C         E  
You see, I used to live alone before I knew you  
Am               F           C       G  
And I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch  
       Am          F  
But listen love, love is not some kind of victory march  
     C                G            C  
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah  

C                     Am  
There was a time when you let me know  
C                       Am  
What’s really going on below  
F             G               C          E  
But now you never show it to me, do you?  
Am               F           C       G  
And I remember when I moved in you  
       Am          F  
And the holy dove she was moving too  
     C                G            C  
And every single breath we drew was Hallelujah  

C                     Am  
Now I’ve done my best, I know it wasn’t much  
C                       Am  
I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch  
F             G               C          E  
I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come here just to fool you  
Am               F           C       G  
And even though it all went wrong  
       Am          F  
I’ll stand right here before the Lord of song  
     C                G            C  
With nothing, nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
