Hallelujah
guitar chords lyrics
Standard Tuning
Intro: D Bm D Bm
D Bm
I heard there was a secret chord
D Bm
That David played and it pleased the lord
G A D A
But you don't really care for music, do you?
D G A
Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
Bm G
The minor fall and the major lift
A F#m Bm
The baffled king composing hallelujah
Chorus:
G Bm G D A D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
D Bm
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
D Bm
You saw her bathing on the roof
G A D A
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
D G A
She tied you to her kitchen chair
Bm G
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
A F#m Bm
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
G Bm G D A D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
D Bm
Baby I've been here before
D Bm
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
G A D A
I used to live alone before I knew you
D G A
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Bm G
But love is not a victory march
A F#m Bm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
G Bm G D A D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah ....
D Bm
Well there was a time when you let me know
D Bm
What's really going on below
G A D A
But now you never show that to me do you
D G A
But remember when I moved in you
Bm G
And the holy dove was moving too
A F#m Bm
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
D Bm
Well, maybe there's a god above
D Bm
But all I've ever learned from love
G A D A
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
D G A
It's not a cry that you hear at night
Bm G
It's not somebody who's seen the light
A F#m Bm
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
G Bm G D A D
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
