Hallelujah (Chromatic)

Hallelujah (Chromatic) by Rufus Wainwright
Musical Range: B5 to E6

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
I heard there was a secret chord

6 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
That David played and it pleased the Lord

7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7 -6 7 7
But you don’t really care for music, do you?

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -8
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth,

7 8 8 8 -7 8 8 -9
the minor fall, the major lift,

9 -9 -9 -9 -9 10 10 10 -9 -9 9
the baffled king composing Hallelujah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 6
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu jah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu—-jah

6 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
Your faith was strong but you needed proof,

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
you saw her bathing on the roof,

7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7 -6 7 7
her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -8
She tied you to a kitchen chair,

7 8 8 8 -7 8 8 -9
she broke your throne, she cut your hair

9 -9 -9 -9 -9 10 10 10 -9 -9 9
and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 6
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu jah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu—-jah

7 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
Maybe I have been here before,

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
I know this room; I’ve walked this floor,

7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7 -6 7 7
I used to live alone before I knew you

6 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -8
I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch,

8 8 8 -7 8 8 -9
love is not a victory march,

8 8 -9 -9 -9 -9 10 10 10 -9 -9 -9 9
it’s a cold and its a broken Hallelujah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 6
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu jah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu—-jah

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
There was a time you let me know

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
whats really going on below,

7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7 -6 7 7
but now you never show it to me, do you? (and)

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -8
Remember when I moved in you;

7 8 8 8 -7 8 8 -9
the holy dark was moving too,

9 -9 -9 -9 -9 10 10 10 -9 -9 9 9
and every breath we drew was Hallelujah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 6
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu jah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 5
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu—-jah

7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
Maybe there’s a God above,

6 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7
and all I ever learned from love

7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 7 -6 7 7
was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

6 6 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -9
And its not a cry you can hear at night,

7 8 8 8 8 -7 8 8 -9
its not somebody who’s seen the light,

9 -9 -9 -9 -9 10 10 10 -9 -9 9 9
its a cold and its a broken Hallelujah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 -6 -6
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu ja

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 -5
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu ja

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 6
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu jah

6 7 -7 -7 -7 7 6 -6 6 -5 -5
Hal le lu jah Hal le lu—-jah
