Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen
C6 Am
I heard there was a secret chord
C6 Am
that David played and it pleased the Lord,
F G C G
But you don't really care for music do you.
C F E
It goes like this the fourth the fifth, Cale 1
Am F
the minor fall and the major lift
G E E7 Am Am/G
The baffled king composing hallelujah
F Am F C6-G-C
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluuuja
C6 Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
C6 Am
You saw her bathing on the roof
F G C G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew her Cale 2
C F E
She tied you to a kitchen chair
Am F
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
G E E7 Am Am/G
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
F Am F C6-G-C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C6 Am
You say I took the name in vain
C6 Am
I don't even know the name
F G C G
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
C F E
There's a blaze of light in every word
Am F
It doesn't matter which you heard
G E E7 Am Am/G
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
F Am F C6-G-C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C6 Am
Baby I've been here before.
C6 Am
I know this room I've walked this floor.
F G C G
I used to live alone before I knew you.
C F E Cale 3/Cohen 1
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Am F
but love is not a victory march
G E E7 Am Am/G
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
F Am F C6-G-C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C6 Am
There was a time you let me know
C6 Am
whats really going on below
F G C G
but now you never show it to me do you?
C F E
I remember when I moved in you Cale 4/Cohen 2
Am F
and the holy dove was moving too
G E E7 Am Am/G
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah
F Am F C6-G-C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C6 Am
Now maybe there's a God above
C6 Am
but all I ever learned from love
F G C G
is how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
C F E Cale 5/Cohen 3
And it's no complaint you hear tonight
Am F
and it's not some pilgrim who's seen the light
G E E7 Am Am/G
it's a cold and it's a lonely Hallelujah
F Am F C6-G-C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
C6 Am
I did my best it wasn't much.
C6 Am
I couldn't feel so I learned to touch.
F G C G
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you.
C F E
And even though it all went wrong, Cohen 4
Am F
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
G E E7 Am Am/G
with nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
F Am F C6-G-C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
