Chords
pin

Couplet: 
C               C            Am 
 Well I heard there was a secret chord
   C               C            Am 
 That David played and it pleased please the Lord
   F                    G                C       G 
 But you don't really care for music, do ya
   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 composes Hallelujah

refrain

   C               C            Am 
 Well your faith was strong, but you needed proof
   C               C            Am 
 You saw her bathing on the roof
   F                    G                C       G 
 Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya
   C                          F           G 
 She tied you to her kitchen chair
      Am                           F 
 And she broke your throne, and she cut your hair
        G                Em            Am 
 And from your lips you drew Hallelujah

refrain

   C               C            Am 
 Well baby I've been here before
   C               C            Am 
 I've seen this room and I've walked this floor, you know
   F                    G                C       G 
 I used to live alone before I knew ya
   C                          F           G 
 And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
      Am                           F 
 And love is not a victory march
        G                Em            Am 
 It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

refrain

 C               C            Am 
 Well the was a time when you let me know
   C               C            Am 
 What's really going on below
   F                    G                C       G 
 But now you never show that to me do ya
   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

refrain

   C               C            Am 
 Maybe there's a God above
   C               C            Am 
 But all I have ever learned from love
   F                    G                C       G 
 Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
   C                          F           G 
 And 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

refrain:

       F               Am          F                  C   G   C   G 
 Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

    Love it. I prefer the E to the E minor and this song is so beautifully simple that I can concentrate on the singing. This is the perfect tune for a beginner who wants to play something with a bit of emotion. Nice one.
