VERSE 1
G
God loves a lullaby
Em7
In a mothers tears in the dead of night
C2 G
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.
G
God loves the drunkards cry,
Em7
The soldiers plea not to let him die
C C2 G
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.
CHORUS
Em C2
We pour out our miseries
G D
God just hears a melody
Em C2
Beautiful the mess we are
G D Am Em7-C
The honest cries of breaking hearts
C2
Are better than a Hallelujah.
VERSE 2
The woman holding on for life,
The dying man giving up the fight
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes
The tears of shame for what's been done,
The silence when the words won't come
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes.
(CHOURS)
BRIDGE
C
Better than a church bell ringing,
G Am C
Better than a choir singing out, singing out.
(CHORUS)x2
