Rufus Wainwright - Hallelujah tab

Please note! I didn't write this tab! All  credit for this should go to  phleigm, 
I was just playing along with it and the adjustments I made were simply how 
I thought it sounded best in accordance with the piano.
 I seriously just copy/pasted his tab and made my tweaks on the intro and the one FGCG run. 
Hope you enjoy!


C           Am          C           Am

On the peak of the Am the open e is the easiest and smoothest to play in my opinion, 
however the piano sounds best if you play the 5th fret instead, however it breaks up 
the slur and sounds choppier. This is what it looks like:

  C           Am          C           Am

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord




   F             G             C             G

But you don't really care for music do you?

   C                F           G           Am               F

It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift

   G           Em          Am

     c                 Am
I've heard there was a secret chord
     c                 Am
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
  F                G             c        G
But you don't really care for music, do you?
  c                   F           g
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
    Am              F
The minor fall, the major lift
    G                 Em        Am
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
    F           Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    F           C-G-C-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

     c                 Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
     c                 Am
You saw her bathing on the roof
  F                G             c        G
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
  c                   F   G
She tied you to a kitchen chair
    Am              F 
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
    G                 Em        Am
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
    F           Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    F           C-G-C-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 

     c                 Am
Maybe I've been here before
     c                 Am
I know this room, I've walked this floor
  F                G             c        G
I used to live alone before I knew you
  c                   F           G
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
    Am              F
love is not a victory march
    G                 Em        Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
    F           Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    F           C-G-C-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 

     c                 Am
There was a time you'd let me know
     c                 Am
What's real and going on below
  F                G             c        G
But now you never show it to me do you?
  c              F       G
Remember when I moved in you?
    Am              F
The holy dark was moving too
    G                 Em        Am
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
    F           Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    F           C-G-C-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah 

     c                 Am
Maybe there's a God above
     c                 Am
And all I ever learned from love
  F                G             c        G
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
  c                   F           G
It's not a cry you can hear at night
    Am              F
It's not somebody who's seen the light
    G                 Em        Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
    F           Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    F           C-G
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    F           Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
    F           C-G-c
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
