[Verse 1]
C G
Now,
C Am
I've heard there was a secret chord
C
That David played,
Am
and it pleased the Lord
F G
But you don't really care for music,
C
do you?
[Pre-Chorus]
G C F
It goes like this, the fourth,
G
the fifth
Am F
The minor fall, the major lift
G E7 Am
The baffled king composing hallelujah
F
Halle
[Chorus]
lujah
Am
Hallelujah
F
Hallelujah
C G C
Halleluujah
[Verse 2]
G C Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
C Am
You saw her bathing on the roof
F G C
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
[Pre-Chorus]
G C F G
She tied you to a kitchen chair
Am
She broke your throne,
F
and she cut your hair
G E7 Am
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
Halle
[Chorus]
F
lujah
Am
Hallelujah
F
Hallelujah
C G C
Halleluujah
[Verse 3]
G C Am
You say I took the name in vain
C Am
I don't even know the name
F G
But if I did, well really,
C
what's it to you?
G
There's a
[Pre-Chorus]
C F G
blaze of light in every word
Am F
It doesn't matter which you heard
G E7 Am
The holy or the broken hallelujah
Halle
[Chorus]
F
lujah
Am
Hallelujah
F
Hallelujah
C G C
Halleluujah
[Verse 4]
G C Am
I did my best, it wasn't much
C Am
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
F
I've told the truth,
G
I didn't come to fool you
C G
And
[Pre-Chorus]
C F G
even though it all went wrong
Am F
I'll stand before the lord of song
G E7 Am
With nothing on my tongue but hallelujah
Halle
[Chorus]
