Intro: [C G]

Now I've hCeard there was a saecret chord
That DCavid played, and it plaeased the Lord
But yFou don't really cGare for music, Cdo you?G
It gCoes like this
The fFourth, the fGifth
The mainor fall, the maFjor lift
The bGaffled king compEosing Hallelaujah
HallelFujah, Hallelaujah, HalleluFjah, HalleCluGjaC Gh

Your fCaith was strong, but you naeeded prof
You sCaw her bathing aon the roof
Her bFeauty and the mGoonlight overthrCew youG
She tCied you
To a kFitchen chGair
She braoke your throne and she cuFt your hair
And frGom your lips she drEew the Hallelaujah
HallelFujah, Hallelaujah, HallelFujah, HallCelGujC Gah

*(You sCay I took the Naame in vain
CI don't even knaow the Name
But Fif I did, well rGeally, what's it tCo you?G
There's a blCaze of light
In Fevery wGord
It daoesn't matter whiFch you heard
The hGoly or the brEoken Hallelaujah
HallelFujah, Hallelaujah, HalleluFjah, HalleCluGjaC Gh

I dCid my best, it waasn't much
I cCouldn't feel, so I traied to touch
I've tFold the truth, I dGidn't come to fCool youG
And Ceven though
It Fall went wrGong
I'll staand before the LoFrd of Song
With nGothing on my tEongue but Hallelaujah
HallelFujah, Hallelaujah, HallelFujah, HallCelujGah
HallelFujah, Hallelaujah, HallelFujah, HallCelujGah
HallelFujah, Hallelaujah, HallelFujah, HallCelujGah
HallelFujah, Hallelaujah, HallelFujah, HallCelujGah

Maybe I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

There was a time you'd let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
And it's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

(Interpret písně: Rufus Wainwright)
