The [Am]minor fall and the[F]major lift

The [G]baffled king [Em]
composing halle[Am]lujah

You [C]saw her bathing [Am]on the roof

Her [F]beauty and the [G] moonlight
over[C]threw you [G]

[F]kitchen [G]chair

She [Am]broke your throne and
she [F]cut your hair

the halle[Am]lujah

It’s a[G]cold and it’s
a [Em]broken halle[Am]lujah

[F]moving too

And [G]every breath we [Em]drew was
halle[Am]lujah

well [C]maybe there is a

But [C]all I have ever [Am]learned
from love

Was [F]how to shoot some[G]body
who out[C]drew you [G]

It’s [C]not a cry that you
[F]here at [G]night
