Hallelujah

Leonard Cohen / Leonard Cohen: Various Positions (1984)

Intro
C Am C Am
C Am
Well, 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 ya?
 
C F G
Well, it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth,
Am F
The minor fall and the major lift,
G E Am
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
F Am F C G C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
 
Well, your faith was strong, but you needed proof, 
You saw her bathing on the roof 
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya 
 
And she tied you to her kitchen chair, 
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair, 
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
 
You say, "I took the Name in vain, 
I dont even know the Name". 
But if I did, well really, what's it to you? 
 
There's a blaze of light in every word 
It doesnt matter which you heard 
The holy or the broken Hallelujah 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah 
 
I did my best, but it wasn't much. 
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch. 
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you. 
 
And even though it all went wrong, 
I'll stand before the Lord of song, 
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah. 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, 
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah...
