I've Cheard there was a Amsecret chord

that CDavid played and it Ampleased the Lord

but Fdo you really Gcare for music Cdo you? G

It C goes like this, the Ffourth, the Gfifth,

the Amminor fall, the Fmajor lift,

the Gbaffled King comEmposing AmHallelujah.

Your faith was strong but you needed proof,

you saw her bathing on the roof.

Her beaty in the moonlight overthrew you.

She tied you to a kitchen chair,

she broke your throne and she cut your hair

and from your lips she drew a Hallelujah.

Maybe I've been here before.

I know this room, I've walked this floor.

I used to live alone before I knew you.

I've seen your flag on marble arch.

Love is not a victory march.

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.

There was a time when you let me know

what's really going on below

but now you never show it to me, do you?

And rEmEmber when I moved in you

the holy dark was moving too

and every breath we drew was Hallelujah.

Maybe there's a god above

and all I ever learned from love

was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you.

And it's not a cry you can hear at night.

It's not somebody who's seen the light.

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.
