Rufus Wainwright - Halleluja
originally by Leonard Cohen
[E-0-1] means 0-1 on the thick E-String
C C/B Am C/B C C/B Am
I've [C]heard there was [C/B]a [Am]secret chord
[C/B]That [C]David played and [C/B]it [Am]pleased the Lord
But [F]you don't really [G]care for music, [C]do you? [E-0-1-] G
It [C]goes like this...the [F]fourth, the [G]fifth
The [Am]minor fall the [F]major lift
The [G]baffled King comp[Em]osing Halle[Am]lujah
chorus:
Halle[F]lujah Halle[Am]lujah Halle[F]lujah Halle[C-G]lu[C]jah G
Your [C]faith was strong but [C/B]you [Am]needed proof
[C/B]You [C]saw her bathing [C/B-Am]on the roof
Her [F]beauty and the [G]moonlight over[C]threw you. [E-0-1-] G
She [C]tied you to a [F]kitchen [G]chair
She [Am]broke your throne she [F]cut your hair
And [G]from your lips she [Em]drew the Halle[Am]lujah
chorus
[C]Maybe I have [C/B]been [Am]here before
I [C]know this room, [C/B]I've [Am]walked this floor
I [F]used to live a[G]lone before I [C]knew you. [E-0-1-] G
I've [C]seen your flag on the [F]marble [G]arch
[Am]Love is not a [F]victory march
It's a [G]cold and it's a [Em]broken Halle[Am]lujah
chorus
There [C]was a time [C/B]you [Am]let me know
[C/B]What's [C]real and [C/B]going [Am]on below
But [F]now you never [G]show it to me, [C]do you? [E-0-1-] G
And re[C]member when I [F]moved in [G]you
The [Am]holy dark was [F]moving too
And [G]every breath we [Em]drew was Halle[Am]lujah
chorus
[C]Maybe there's [C/B]a [Am]God above
[C/B]And [C]all I ever [Am]learned from love
Was [F]how to shoot at [G]someone who out[C]drew you. [E-0-1-] G
And it's [C]not a cry you can [F]hear at [G]night
it's [Am]not somebody who's [F]seen the light
it's a [G]cold and it's a [Em]broken Halle[Am]lujah
chorus
chorus without last G, end on C
