C  Am  C  Am  
C  Am  F  G  
C  Am  C  Am  
C  Am  F  G  
C  Am  C  Am  
C  Am  F  G  
C  Am  C  G  
C  Am  F  G  

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

C  Am  
Your faith was strong but you needed proof  
C  Am  
You saw her bathing on the roof  
C  Am  
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew her  
F  G  
She tied you to a kitchen chair  
C  Am  
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair  
F  G  
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  
C  Am  
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you  
F  G  
And it's not a cry that you hear at night  
C  Am  
It's not someone who's seen the light  
F  G  
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  
C  Am  
You see, I used to live alone before I knew you  
F  G  
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch  
C  Am  
But listen love, love is not some kind of victory march  
F  G  
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah  

C  Am  
Well, there was a time when you let me know  
C  Am  
What's really going on below  
C  Am  
But now you never show it to me, do you?  
F  G  
And I remember when I moved in you  
C  Am  
And the holy dove she was moving too  
F  G  
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  
C  Am  
I've told the truth, I didn't come here just to fool you  
F  G  
And even though it all went wrong  
C  Am  
I'll stand right here before the Lord of song  
F  G  
With nothing, nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah  

C  Am  
Hallelujah, Hallelujah  
C  Am  
Hallelujah, Hallelujah  
C  Am  
Hallelujah, Hallelujah  
C  Am  
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
