Hallelujah Tab

by Leonard Cohen


HALLELUJAH - Leonard Cohen
	
                       	 
I heard there was a secret chord      
                          
that David played and it pleased the Lord
                                        
But you don't really care for music do ya
     		          		
It goes like this the fourth the fifth
     		          
the minor fall and the major lift
                               
The baffled king composing hallelujah
     	        	   	               
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

    

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



           	 
Maybe Ive been here before
                 
I know this room Ive walked this floor
                                    
I used to live alone before I knew you
    		                 
Ive seen your flag on the marble arch
            
Love is not a victory march
                             
It’s a conan it’s a broken hallelujah
     	        	   	               
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
 
      

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



            	
Maybe there’s a better bow
            	
Then all I ever learned from love
                                         
Was how to shoot at someone while I drew you
    		              
Its not a cry you can hear at night
                    
Its not somebody whos seen the light
                            
It’s a conan it’s a broken hallelujah
     	        	   	               
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
  
   

                	 
You say I took the name in vain
         
I don't even know the name
                                         
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya?
          	                  
There's a blaze of light in every word
   		   
It doesn't matter which you heard
                         
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
     	        	   	               
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


 
              	 
I did my best, it wasn't much
                  
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
                                            
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya
    	                    
And even though it all went wrong
     		       
I'll stand before the Lord of Song
                               
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

(Verses I found, not in the actual song from Shreck)

    

     	        	      	             
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu
     	        	      	             
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu
     	        	      	             
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelu
     	        	      	             
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
