Well I've heard there was a secret chord,
G Em
That David played and it pleased the Lord,
C D G D
But you don't really care for music, do ya ?
G C D
It goes like this, the 4th, the 5th,
Em C
the minor fall and the major lift,
D B7 Em
The baffled king com- posing halle- lujah,
C Em
Halle- lujah, halle- lujah,
C G D G
halle- lujah, halle lu--- ---jah
G Em
Your faith was strong but you needed proof,
G Em
You saw her bathing on the roof,
C D G D
Her beauty and the moonlight over- threw ya,
G C D
She tied you to her kitchen chair,
Em C
She broke your throne and she cut your hair,
D B7 Em
And from your lips she drew the halle- lujah,
C Em
Halle- lujah, halle- lujah,
C G D G
halle- lujah, halle lu--- ---jah
G Em
May be there is a God above,
G Em
But all I ever learned from love,
C D G D
Was how to shoot at someone who out- drew ya.
G C D
And it's not a cry you can hear at night,
Em C
It's not somebody who's seen the light,
D B7 Em
It's a cold and it's a broken halle- lujah,
C Em
Halle- lujah, halle- lujah,
C G D G
halle- lujah, halle lu--- ---jah
G Em
I did my best, it wasn't much,
G Em
I couldn't feel so I tried to touch,
C D G D
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya.
G C D
And even though it all went wrong,
Em C
I'll stand before the Lord of Song,
D B7 Em
With nothing on my tongue but halle- lujah,
C Em
Halle- lujah, halle- lujah,
C G D G
halle- lujah, halle lu--- ---jah
G Em
There was a time when you let me know,
G Em
What's really going on below,
C D G D
But now you never show it to me do ya.
G C D
Well re-member when I moved in with you,
Em C
And the holy dove was moving too,
D B7 Em
And every breath we drew was halle- lujah
C Em
Halle- lujah, halle- lujah,
C G D G
halle- lujah, halle lu--- ---jah
C Em
Halle- lujah, halle- lujah,
C G D G
halle- lujah, halle lu--- ---jah
