F F Am Am F F C G C Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah
[Verse 2]
C Am C Am
Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof
F G C G
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
C F - G Am F
She tied you to a kitchen chair She broke your throne and she cut your hair
G E7 Am Am
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
[Chorus]
F F Am Am F F C G C Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah
[Verse 3]
C Am C Am
Baby I've been here before I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
F G C G
I used to live alone before I knew you
C F - G Am F
I've seen your flag on the marble Arch But love is not a victory march
G E7 Am Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
[Chorus]
F F Am Am F F C G C Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah
[Verse 4]
C Am C Am
Well there was a time when you let me know What's really going on below
F G C G
But now you never show that to me do you
C F - G Am F
But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too
G E7 Am Am
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
[Chorus]
F F Am Am F F C G C Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah
[Verse 5]
C Am C Am
You say I took the name in vain I do not even know the name
F G C G
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
C F - G Am F
There's a blaze of light in every word It doesn't matter which you heard
G E7 Am Am
The holy or the broken Hallelujah
[Chorus]
F F Am Am F F C G C Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah
[Verse 6]
C Am C Am
Well, maybe there's a god above But all I've ever learned from love
F G C G
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
C F - G Am F
It's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light
G E7 Am Am
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
[Chorus]
F F Am Am F F C G C Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah
[Verse 7]
C Am C Am
I did my best, but it wasn't much I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
F G C G
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
C F - G C F
And even though it all went wrong I'll stand before the Lord of Song
G E7 Am Am
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
[Chorus]
F F Am Am F F C G C Am
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah
F F Am Am F F C G C
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelu - jah

You don't have an Fmaj7 chord, your chord diagram and picking pattern give a regular F.
