Hallelujah Key of D
Leonard Cohen
Verse 1:
D Bm
Well I've heard there was a secret chord
D Bm
That David played and it pleased the Lord
G D A
But you don't really care for music, do you?
D/F#
Well it goes like this
G A Bm G
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
A F#7 Bm
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
G Bm G D AD
hallelujah
D Bm
Verse 2:
Well 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 her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Verse 3:
But baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
You know, I used to live alone before I knew ya
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
And love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Verse 4:
Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do ya
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Verse 5:
E C#m
Maybe there's a God above
E C#m
But all I've ever learned from love
A E B
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
E/G# A B
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
C#m A
It's not somebody who's seen the light
B G#7 C#m
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
A C#m AE B E
Hallelujah
