HALLELUJAH, JEFF BUCKLEY


HALLELUJAH, JEFF BUCKLEY - CAPO 5TH FRET


    C                          Am
I heard there was a secret chord
        C                              Am
that David played and it pleased the Lord
        F                      G                     C          G7
but you don't really care for music do you?
             C
well it goes like this
       Am                          C                         Am
the fourth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift
        F                        G               Am   G7
the baffled king composing Hallelujah


         F           Am             F             C G7  C
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

                C                                     Am
well your faith was strong but you needed proof
        C                       Am
you saw her bathing on the roof
         F                       G                    C           G7
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
         C                      Am
she tied you to her kitchen chair
        C                                        Am
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
       F                                G              Am       G7
and from your lips you drew an Hallelujah

F                    Am             F             C G7  C
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

 C                     Am
baby I've been here before
        C                                    Am
i've seen this room and I've walked this floor
   F                  G                      C          G7
i used to live alone before I knew you
              C                                Am
and I've seen your flag on the marble arch
        C                     Am
and love is not a victory march
          F                   G                Am   G7
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

   F                     Am             F             C G7  C
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah


         C                                Am
there was a time when you let me know
             C                 Am
what's really going on below
         F                     G                     C           G7
but now you never show that to me do you?
              C                     Am
but remember when I moved in you
               Am                 C
and the holy dove was moving too
         F                       G                  Am     G7
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah

   F                    Am             F             C G7  C
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

   C                     Am
maybe there's a God above
      C                   Am
but all I've ever learned from love
         F                       G                       C            G7                         
was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
            C                           Am
and it's not a cry that you hear at night
        C                              Am
it's not somebody who's seen the light
          F                    G               Am    G7
it's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah


        F           Am             F             C G7  C
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
        F           Am             F             C G7  C
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
