Vers:
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?
Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuuuuuuuuuujah
Vers:
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight over through ya
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuuuuuuuuuujah
Vers:
Baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew ya
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
But love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuuuuuuuuuujah
Vers:
There was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do ya
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuuuuuuuuuujah
Vers:
Well, maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
Bride:
It's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuuuuuuuuuujah

Vers:
I h[E]eard there was a s[A]ecret chord
that D[E]avid played and it p[A]leased the Lord
But y[A]ou don't really care for music, d[E]o you?[Bsus2]
Well it g[E]oes like this
The f[A]ourth, the f[B]ifth, the m[C#m]inor fall and the m[A]ajor lift
The b[B]affled king c[B]omposing Hallel[C#m]ujah
Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]lujah, Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]luuuuu[B]uuuuuu[E]jah [B]
Vers:
Well your f[E]aith was strong but you n[A]eeded proof
You s[E]aw her bathing [A]on the roof
Her b[A]eauty and the moonlight over th[E]rough ya [Bsus2]
She t[E]ied you to her k[A]itchen c[B]hair
She b[C#m]roke your throne and she c[A]ut your hair
And f[B]rom your lips she d[B]rew the Hallel[C#m]ujah
Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]lujah, Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]luuuuu[B]uuuuuu[E]jah [B]
Vers:
B[E]aby I've been h[A]ere before
I've s[E]een this room and I've w[A]alked this floor
I u[A]sed to live alone before I k[E]new ya [Bsus2]
I've s[E]een your flag on the m[A]arble a[B]rch
But l[C#m]ove is not a v[A]ictory m[B]arch
It's a c[B]old and it's a broken Hallel[C#m]ujah
Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]lujah, Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]luuuuu[B]uuuuuu[E]jah [B]
Vers:
There w[E]as a time when you l[A]et me know
What's r[E]eally going [A]on below
But n[A]ow you never show that to me [E]do ya [Bsus2]
But r[E]emember when I m[A]oved in y[B]ou
And the h[C#m]oly dove was m[A]oving too
And e[B]very breath we d[B]rew was Hallel[C#m]ujah
Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]lujah, Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]luuuuu[B]uuuuuu[E]jah [B]
Vers:
Well, m[E]aybe there's a G[A]od above
But a[E]ll I've ever l[A]earned from love
Was h[A]ow to shoot somebody who outd[E]rew ya [Bsus2]
Bride:
It's n[E]ot a cry that you h[A]ear at n[B]ight
It's [C#m]not somebody who's s[A]een the light
It's a c[B]old and it's a b[B]roken Hallel[C#m]ujah
Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]lujah, Halle[A]lujah, Halle[E]luuuuu[C#m]uuuu[B]uu[E]jah
