Selection chords: Katie Paterson

            G                 Em
Well, Iʼve heard there was a secret chord
      G                    Em
that David played and it pleased the Lord,
     C                D                   G D
But you donʼt really care for music do you.
         G                   C          D
Well it goes like this: The fourth the fifth,
     Em                 C
the minor fall and the major lift
     D               B7         Em
The baffled king composing hallelujah
      C         Em          C          G   D G Em G Em
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja

      G                        Em
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
     G              Em
You saw her bathing on the roof
     C               D              G   D
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew her
     G             C        D
She tied you to a kitchen chair
     Em                     C
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
      D                  B7   Bm           Em
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
      C         Em          C          G   D G Em G Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

    G              Em
Oh Baby Iʼve been here before.
      G                       Em
Iʼve seen this room and Iʼve walked this floor.
  C              D              G      D
I used to live alone before I knew you.
      G                     C     D
Iʼve seen your flag on the marble arch
     Em            C
but love is not a victory march
        D               B7   Bm         Em
Itʼs a cold and itʼs a broken Hallelujah
      C         Em          C          G   D G Em G Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

            G                   Em
Well there was a time when you let me know
        G           Em
whatʼs really going on below
     C              D              G       D
but now you never show that to me do you?
       G             C        D
And remember when I moved in you
     Em            C
The holy dove was moving too
    D                 B7   Bm           Em
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah
      C         Em          C          G   D G Em G Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

      G                Em
Well maybe there is a god above
    G              Em
but all Iʼve ever learned from love
     C                D            G      D
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
          G                  C       D
And itʼs not a cry that you hear at night
      Em                 C
itʼs not somebody whoʼs seen the light
        D                Bm         Em
itʼs a cold and itʼs a broken Hallelujah
      C         Em          C          G   D G Em G Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
      C         Em          C          G   D G Em G Em
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
