[Intro]
E C#m E C#m
[Verse 1]
E C#m
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
E C#m
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
A B E B
But you don't really care for music, do you?
E A B
It goes like this the fourth, the fifth
C#m A
The minor fall and the major lift
B G#7 C#m
The baffled king composing "Hallelujah"
[Chorus]
A C#m
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
A E B E
Hallelujah, Hallelu-u-jah
[Verse 2]
E C#m
You say I took the name in vain
E C#m
I don't even know the name
A B E B
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
E A B
There's a blaze of light in every word
C#m A
It doesn't matter what you heard
B G#7 C#m
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
A C#m
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
A E B E
Hallelujah, Hallel-u-jah
[Verse 3]
E C#m
I did my best, it wasn't much
E C#m
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
A B E B
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
E A B
And even though it all went wrong
C#m A
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
B G#7 C#m
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[Outro]
A C#m
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
A E B E
Hallelujah, Hallelu-
A C#m
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
A E B E
Hallelujah, Hallelu-
A
Hallelujah
