" 6/8 time : Intro C Am C Am C Am C Am i heard there was a secret chord , that david played and it pleased the lord , F G C G C ( F G ) but you don’t really care for music do you? it goes like this the fourth the fifth , Am F G Em Am Am the minor fall , the major lift , the baffled king composing hallelujah . F F Am Am F F C G C G hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu - u - u - u - jah C Am C Am your faith was strong but you needed proof , you saw her bathing on the roof . F G C G C ( F G ) her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you . she tied you to a kitchen chair , Am F G Em Am Am she broke your throne , she cut your hair , and from your lips she drew the hallelujah . Chorus C Am C Am baby , i’ve been here before , i know this room , i’ve walked this floor , F G C G C ( F G ) i used to live alone before i knew you . i’ve seen your flag on the marble arch , Am F G Em Am Am love is not a victory march , it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah .

Chorus C Am C Am maybe there’s a god above , and all i ever learned from love F G C G C ( F G ) was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you . and it’s not the cry you can hear at night Am F G Em Am Am it’s not somebody who’s seen the light , it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah . F F Am Am F F Am G hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah F F Am Am F F C G C C hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu - u - u - u - jah
