Intro: Em G Em Bm D G Bm D G Verse G Em G Em I heard there was a secret chord, that David played, and it pleased the Lord. C D G Em But you don't really care for music, do ya? G C D Em C Well, it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, D Bm Em Em The baffled king composing Hallelujah.Verse G Em G Em Your faith was strong but you needed proof, you saw her bathing on the roof, C D G Em Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya.’ G C D Em C Well, she tied you to a kitchen chair, she broke your throne, and cut your hair, D Bm Em Em And from your lips she drew Hallelujah.Em G Em Bm D G Em G Em Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.Verse G Em G Em Baby, I’ve been here before, I’ve seen this room and I’ve walked the floor. C D G Em I used to live alone before I knew ya.'
