Zelle - Hallelujah

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 Em Am
the baffled king composing hallelujah

chorus :

F Am F C G C
hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu – u – u – u – jah . . . .

C Am
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 Em Am
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah

F Am F C G C
hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu – u – u – u – jah . . . .

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

F Am F C G C
hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu – u – u – u – jah . . . .

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

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

F Am F C G C
hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelujah , hallelu – u – u – u – jah . . . .
