Better Than A Hallelujah by Amy Gray

Verse 1:
G           C             Em                   
God loves a lullaby, in a mothers tears in the dead of night
C                         D        G 
Better than a Hallelujah, sometimes
G             C                  Em
God loves the drunkards cry, the soldiers plea not to let him die
C                         D        G
Better than a Hallelujah, sometimes

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

Verse 2:
G                 C                Em
The woman holding on for life, the dying man giving up the fight
    C                       D       G
Are better than Hallelujah, sometimes
G                      C                     Em
The tears of shame for what's been done, the silence when the words won't come
    C                         D       G
Are better than a Hallelujah, sometimes

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

Bridge:
C
Better than a church bell ringing
G                           C            D
Better than a choir singing out, singing out

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