Leonard Cohen - 

 
Hallelujah 
 
Intro 
C — Am — C — Am 
 
Estrofa 
 
C  Am 
I heard there was a secret chord 
C  Am 
that David played and it pleased the Lord 
F  G C  G 
but you don't really care for music do you? 
 

it goes like this 
F G Am 
the fourth the fifth the minor fall 

and the major lift 
 
G E7 Am 
the baffled king composing Hallelujah 
 
Estribillo 
 
F Am 
Hallelujah Hallelujah 
F C G C G 
Hallelujah Hallelu – – – jah 
 

Well your faith was strong 
Am 
but you needed proof 
C Am 
you saw her bathing on the roof 
F G 
her beauty and the moonlight 
C G 
overthrew you 
 
C F G 
she tied you to her kitchen chair 
 
Am 
she broke your throne 

and she cut your hair 
G E7 Am 
and from your lips she drew a Hallelujah 
 
F Am 
Hallelujah Hallelujah 
F C G C G 
Hallelujah Hallelu – – – jah 
 
 
 
C Am 
Baby I've been here before 
  C 
I've seen this room 
Am 
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 
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah 
 
F Am 
Hallelujah Hallelujah 
F C G C G 
Hallelujah Hallelu – – – jah 
 
 
C Am 
There was a time when you let me know 
C Am 
what's really going on below 
F G 
but now you never show 
C G 
that to me do you? 
 
C F G 
but remember when I moved in you 
Am F 
and the holy dove was moving too 
G E7 Am 
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah 
 
 
F Am 
Hallelujah Hallelujah 
F C G C G 
Hallelujah Hallelu – – – jah 
 
 
C Am 
Maybe there's a God above 
C Am 
but all I've ever learned from love 
F G 
was how to shoot at somebody who 
C G 
outdrew you 
C F G 
And it's not a cry that you hear at night 
Am F 
it's not somebody who's seen the light 
G E7 Am 
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah 
 
 
F Am 
Hallelujah Hallelujah 
F C G C G 
Hallelujah Hallelu – – – jah
