Intro :     
 
 
I've h  eard there was a   secret chord
That Da  vid played and it ple  ased the Lord
But   you don't really   care for music   do you ?   
 
 
It g  oes like this, the f  ourth, the f  ifth
The m  inor fall, the ma  jor lift
The ba  ffled King compo  sing Hallel  ujah
 
 
Hallelu  jah, Hallelu  jah
Hallelu  jah, Hallelu  -u-j  ah           
 
 
Your fa  ith was strong but you n  eeded proof
You s  aw her bathing   on the roof
Her b  eauty in the mo  onlight overthr  ew you     
 
 
She t  ied you to a kitc  hen ch  air
She b  roke your throne, and she c  ut your hair
And fr  om your lips she dr  ew the Hall  elujah
 
 
Hallelu  jah, Hallelu  jah
Hallelu  jah, Hallelu  jah                
 
 
You sa  y I took the n  ame in vain
I don  't even kn  ow the name
But i  f I did, well, r  eally, what's it   to you ?   
 
 
There's a b  laze of light in ev  ery wo  rd
It do  esn't matter wh  ich you heard
The ho  ly or the bro  ken Hallel  ujah
 
 
Hallelu  jah, Hallelu  jah
Hallelu  jah, Hallelu  jah                
 
 
I d  id my best, it w  asn't much
I cou  ldn't feel, so I tr  ied to touch
I've t  old the truth, I d  idn't come to fool y  ou     
 
 
And   even though it a  ll went wr  ong
I'll s  tand before the L  ord of Song
With   nothing on my to  ngue but Hallel  ujah
 
 
Hallel  ujah, Halle  lujah
Hallel  ujah, Hallelu-  u-ja  h
Hallel  ujah (pause) Hallel  ujah
Hallel  ujah, Hallelu-  u-ja  h
Ha  llelujah, H  allelujah
Hallel  ujah, Hallelu-  u-ja  h (2X)
 
 
Hallelu  jah, Hallel  ujah
 
 
(ad libitum)
