Intro:  D   Bm   D  Bm  
I Dheard there was a Bmsecret chord
That DDavid played and it Bmpleased the lord
But Gyou don't really Acare for music, Ddo you? A  
Well it Dgoes like this the Gfourth, the Afifth
The Bmminor fall and the Gmajor lift
The Abaffled king F#mcomposing hallelBmujah
Chorus:
HalleGlujah, halleBmlujah, halleGlujah, halleDlu-u-Au-u-Djah .... 
Well your Dfaith was strong but you Bmneeded proof
You Dsaw her bathing Bmon the roof
Her Gbeauty and the Amoonlight overDthrew youA  
DShe tied you to her Gkitchen Achair
She Bmbroke your throne and she Gcut your hair
And Afrom your lips she F#mdrew the hallelBmujah
HalleGlujah, halleBmlujah, halleGlujah, halleDlu-u-Au-u-Djah .... 
DBaby I've been Bmhere before
I've Dseen this room and I've Bmwalked this floor
I Gused to live aAlone before I Dknew youA  
DI've seen your flag on the Gmarble Aarch
But Bmlove is not a victory Gmarch
It's a Acold and it's a F#mbroken hallelBmujah
HalleGlujah, halleBmlujah, halleGlujah, halleDlu-u-Au-u-Djah .... 
Well Dthere was a time when you Bmlet me know
What's Dreally going Bmon below
But Gnow you never Ashow that to me Ddo youA  
But reDmember when I Gmoved in Ayou
And the Bmholy dove was Gmoving too
And Aevery breath we F#mdrew was hallelBmujah
Well, Dmaybe there's a Bmgod above
But Dall I've ever Bmlearned from love
Was Ghow to shoot someAbody who outDdrew youA  
It's Dnot a cry that you Ghear at Anight
It's Bmnot somebody who's Gseen the light
It's a Acold and it's a F#mbroken hallelBmujah
HalleGlujah, halleBmlujah, halleGlujah, halleDlu-u-Au-u-Djah
