[Verse 1]
C Am
I heard there was a secret chord
C Am
That David played and it pleased the Lord
F G C G
But you don't really care for music, do you?
C F G
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
Am F
The minor fall and the major lift
G E7 Am
The baffled king composing hallelujah

[Chorus]
F Am F C G C Am C Am
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....

[Verse 2]

Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof
C Am
You saw her bathing on the roof
F G C G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
C F G
She tied you to her kitchen chair
Am F
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
G E7 Am
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

I used to live alone before I knew you

I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Am F
But love is not a victory march

It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

What's really going on below

But now you never show that to me do you
