i heard there was a secret chord

that david played and it pleased the lord

but you don’t really care for music , do you
G C D
well it goes like this the fourth , the fifth

the baffled king composing hallelujah

G Em
well your faith was strong but you needed proof
G Em
you saw her bathing on the roof
C D G D
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
G C D
she tied you to her kitchen chair
Em C
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
D B7 Em
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah
C Em C G D G
hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu – jah ,

Em – G – Em

G Em
baby i’ve been here before
G Em
i’ve seen this room and i’ve walked this floor
C D G D
i used to live alone before i knew you
G C D
i’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
Em C
but love is not a victory march
D B7 Em
it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah
C Em C G D G
hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu – jah ,

G Em
well there was a time when you let me know
G Em
what’s really going on below
C D G D
but now you never show that to me do you
G C D
but remember when i moved in you
Em C
and the holy dove was moving too
D B7 Em
and every breath we drew was hallelujah

G Em
well , maybe there’s a god above
G Em
but all i’ve ever learned from love
C D G D
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
G C D
it’s not a cry that you hear at night
Em C
it’s not somebody who’s seen the light
D B7 Em
it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah

C Em C G D G
hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu – jah ,
