Hallelujah Chords

(ver. 1)
Jeff Buckley
[Intro]
C Am7 C Am7 C Am7 C Am7

[Verse 1]
  C                 Am7 
I heard there was a secret chord 
      C                   Am7 
That David played and it pleased the Lord 
     F                         G        C       G
But you don't really care for music do you? 
         C 
Well it goes like this 
     F          G         Am7                 F 
The fourth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift 
     G             E7            Am 
The baffled king composing Hallelujah 

[Chorus]
      F           Am7       F         C/E   G/D    
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu  -  jah

[Instrumental]
C Am7 C Am7 

[Verse 2]
 C                               Am7
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof 
 C                  Am7
You saw her bathing on the roof 
    F                        G    C         G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you 
    C              F        G
She tied you to her kitchen chair 
    Am7                        F
She broke your throne and she cut your hair 
    G                 E7        Am
And from your lips you drew a Hallelujah 

[Chorus]
      F           Am7       F         C/E   G/D    
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu  -  jah 

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
 C             Am7 
Baby I've been here before 
     C                       Am7
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor 
  F             G            C           G
I used to live alone before I knew you 
         C                     F      G
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch 
    Am            F
And love is not a victory march 
       G               E7           Am
At's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah 

[Chorus]
      F           Am7       F         C/E   G/D    
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelu  -  jah 

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
C                         Am7
There was a time when you let me know 
       C            Am7
What's really going on below 
    F              G             C          G
But now you never show that to me do you? 
    C               F        G
But remember when I moved in you 
        Am7            F
And the holy dove was moving too 
    G               E7             Am
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah 

[Chorus]
     F          Am7         F         C G/B 
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah 

[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
C               Am7 
May be there's a God above 
    C              Am7
But all I've ever learned from love 
    F               G               C          G
Was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew you
    C                       F       G
And it's not a cry that you hear at night 
     Am7                 F
It's not somebody who's seen the light 
       G               E7           Am
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah 

[Chorus]
      F          Am7        F           C/E  G/D 
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuu 
     F          Am7         F          C  G/B  F  Am  F Am 
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halleluuuu 
     F  G     C
Halleluuuu - jah
