Hallelujah
Leonard Cohen
Intro:
[C] [Am] [C] [Am]
Verse 1:
I [C] heard there was a [Am] secret chord
That [C] David played and it [Am] pleased the lord
But [F] you don't really [G] care for music [C] do you? [G]
Well it [C] goes like this the [F] fourth the [G] fifth
The [Am] minor fall, the [F] major lift
The [G] baffled king [E7] composing halle[Am]lujah
|Chorus:
|Halle[F]lujah, halle[Am]lujah, halle[F]lujah,
|Halle[C]lu-[G]u-u-u[C]jah [Am] [C] [Am]
Verse 2:
Well your [C] faith was strong but you [Am] needed proof
You [C] saw her bathing [Am] on the roof
Her [F] beauty and the [G] moonlight over[C] threw you [G]
She [C] tied you to her [F] kitchen [G] chair
She [Am] broke your throne and she [F] cut your hair
And [G] from your lips she [E7] drew the halle[Am]lujah
|Chorus:
|Halle[F]lujah, halle[Am]lujah, halle[F]lujah,
|Halle[C]lu-[G]u-u-u[C]jah [Am] [C] [Am]
Verse 3:
[C] Baby I've been [Am] here before
I've [C] seen this room and I've [Am] walked this floor
I [F] used to live a[G]lone before I [C] knew you
[G] I've [C] seen your flag on the [F] marble [G] arch
But [Am] love is not a victory [F] march
It's a [G] cold and it's a [E7] broken halle[Am]lujah
|Chorus:
|Halle[F]lujah, halle[Am]lujah, halle[F]lujah,
|halle[C]lu-[G]u-u-u[C]jah [Am] [C] [Am]
Verse 4:
Well, [C] maybe there's a [Am] god above
But [C] all I've ever [Am] learned from love
Was [F] how to shoot some[G]body who out[C]drew you [G]
It's [C] not a cry that you [F] hear at [G] night
It's [Am] not somebody who's [F] seen the light
It's a [G] cold and it's a [E7] broken halle[Am]lujah
