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 and the F 
major lift
The G 
baffled king Em 
composing halleAm 
lujah
R: HalleF 
lujah, halleAm 
lujah, halleF 
lujah, halleC 
lu-u-G 
u-u-C 
jah…
2. Your faith was strong but you needed proof, 
you saw her bathing on the roof, 
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya. 
She tied you to a kitchen chair, 
she broke your throne, she cut your hair 
and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah. 
R: Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
3. You say I took the name in vain, 
I don't even know the name 
but if I did, well really, what's it to ya? 
There's a blaze of light in every word, 
it doesn't matter which you heard, 
the holy or the broken Hallelujah. 
R: Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
4. I did my best, it wasn't much, 
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch, 
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya. 
And even though it all went wrong, 
I'll stand before the Lord of Song 
with nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah 
R: Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
Hallelujah
