Verse 1
         Db     Bbm
When the rain you want
     Gb2   Db
Is a flood instead
        Ab  Bbm
And the roses bloom
            Gb2     Db
But they’re not quite red
       Db      Bbm
When I reach the edge
      Gb2 Db
Of my brave ry
              Ab           Bbm
I’ll still be singing at the banks
        Gb2  Db
Of an unparted sea
Chorus 1

Sometimes the only way through it is a hallelujah
     Gb2               Db
(The only way through it is a hallelujah)
              Bbm               Ab(add4)
Sometimes the only thing to do is just to give it to Ya
     Gb2               Db
(The only thing to do is just to give it to Ya)
    Bbm              Ab(add4)
And though my troubles shake me
       Gb2           Db
I know they will never move Ya
              Bbm               Ab(add4)

Hallelujah

Verse 2
        Db   Bbm
There’s what I want
                 Gb2     Db
And then there’s where I’m at
      Ab     Bbm
Every one step forward
          Gb2      Db
It got me five steps back
      Db     Bbm
And I cried, I called
    Gb2   Db
God knows I prayed
    Ab            Bbm
But most days faith is climbing
     Gb2         Db
Up a mountain that stayed

And though my troubles shake me
       Gb2           Db
I know they will never move Ya
