| Though, this one is a bit easier: |
| G | Em | |
| Your fa | ith was strong but you n | eeded proof |
| G | Em | |
| You sa | w her bathing | on the roof |
| C | G | |
| her b | eauty, and the moonlight overthr | ew you |
| G | C | D | |
| She | tied you to a k | itchen ch | air |
| Em | C | D | |
| she | broke your thr | one and she c | ut your hair |
| D | Em | |
| and f | rom your lips she drew the H | alleluja |
| E | C | Em | C | G | D | G | |
| Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Hallelu-u-u-ja |
And maybe there's a god above
But all I've ever learned from love
Is how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
And it's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah ...
