Better Than A Hallelujah

Amy Grant

Text File


    G
V1- God loves a lullaby
V2- The woman holding on for life,

	Em
	In a mothers tears in the dead of night
	The dying man giving up the fight

     	     Am7                  C        G
	(Are) Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.

	G
	God loves the drunkards cry,
	Tears of shame for what's been done,

	Em
	The soldiers plea not to let him die
	The silence when the words won't come

       	       Am7             C             G
	(Are) Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.

CHORUS

	Em               Cadd9
	We pour out our miseries
	G                D
	God just hears a melody
	Em            Cadd9
	Beautiful the mess we are
	G                   D         Am    Em7-C
	The honest cries of breaking hearts
                            G
	Are better than a Hallelujah.

Goto Verse 2

	C
	Better than a church bell ringing,
	G                            Am             C
	Better than a choir singing out,    singing out.

Goto Chorus  (Guitar solo = 1st 3 lines of chorus)


End:     G     Em     Cadd9     G
	Better than a Hallelujah sometimes
