Artist: Leonard Cohen
You p[C]acked your bags and sh[Am]ut the door,
You c[C]rossed the sea to fi[Am]ght a war,
You [F]didn't know just [G]what would happe[C]n to y[G]a.
Ste[C]pped in the dirt boo[F]ts on the gr[G]ound,
And [Am]gunfire is the o[F]nly sound,
And [G]to yourself you w[E]hispered, Ha[Am]llelujah.
[CHORUS]
Halle[F]lujah, Halle[Am]lujah, Halle[F]lujah,
Halle[C]lu[G] -[C] jah. [G]
[VERSE]
Every[C] day and every ni[Am]ght,
you [C]walked the walk, you [Am]fought the fight,
You [F]never saw the e[G]nd in sight now d[C]id ya[G] .
The [C]days awash in [F]a haze o[G]f red,
The [Am]blood, The mud, too many de[F]ad,
Your[G] weary soul was[E] crying Hallel[Am]ujah.
[CHORUS]
Halle[F]lujah, Halle[Am]lujah, Halle[F]lujah,
Halle[C]lu[G] -[C] jah. [G]
[VERSE]
Too [C]late to help, you h[Am]ear a shot,
You kno[C]w you're in a[Am] deadly spot,
You [F]never thought t[G]his day would come[C] now [G]did ya?
Your broth[C]er falls down to t[F]he gro[G]und,
The[Am] enemy is all a[F]round,
From[G] your lips y[E]ou scream a [Am]Hallelujah.
[CHORUS]
Halle[F]lujah, Halle[Am]lujah, Halle[F]lujah,
Halle[C]lu[G] -[C] jah. [G]
[VERSE]
Yo[C]u fought the fight til[Am]l it was done,
Yo[C]u have the strength[Am] to carry on,
You t[F]hought it'd be muc[G]h better back h[C]ome did[G] ya?
You [C]try each day, keep p[F]ushing th[G]rough,
But t[Am]he battle lives i[F]nside of you,
It's [G]a cold and it'[E]s a broken halle[Am]lujah
