Glory Hallelujah

G    D    C    C7
G    D    C  D G

[Verse 1]

G                              D
Brothers and sisters, have you heard the news?
    C                            C7
The storm has lifted and there's nothing to lose,
    G                              D
So swap your confirmation for your dancing shoes,
              C      D     G
Because there never was no God.

[Verse 2]

G                            D
Step out of the darkness and onto the streets,
C                                   C7
Forget about the fast, let's have a carnival feast,
G                                      D
Raise up your lowered head to hear the liberation beat,
              C      D     G
Because there never was no God.


[Chorus]

         C   G
There is no God,
    D              G
So clap your hands together,
         C   G
There is no God,
   D             Em
No heaven and no hell.
D        C   G
There is no God,
              D    Em
We're all in this together,
D        C   G
There is no God,
    D                  G
So ring that victory bell.

Cadd9 G x2

[Verse 3]

G                              D
No cowering in the dark before these overbearing priests,
    C                            C7
Not waiting until we die until we restitute the meek,
G                                      D
No blaming all our failings on imaginary beasts,
              C      D     G
Because there never was no God.

[Verse 4]
G                              D
No fighting over land your distant fathers told you of,
    C                            C7
Not spilling blood for those who have never spread a drop of love,
G                                      D
No finger pointing justified by phantoms up above,
              C      D     G
Because there never was no God.

 [Chorus]

         C   G
There is no God,
    D              G
So clap your hands together,
         C   G
There is no God,
   D             Em
No heaven and no hell.
D        C   G
There is no God,
              D    Em
We're all in this together,
D        C   G
There is no God,
    D                  G
So ring that victory bell.

Cadd9-G x 2


      Am                                   B
I know you're scared of dying, man, and I am, too
         D                             A7
But pretending it ain't happening won't see us through
   Am                                          B
If we accept that there's an end game and we don't have much time
         D                          A7
Then in the here and now we can try and do things right
  C                                  G
Our own salvation army, and together we believe
    Cadd9                          D
In all the wondrous things mere mortals can achieve

[single strum vers]

G                                     D
I've known beauty in the stillness of cathedrals in the day
C                                        C7
I've sung, "Glory Hallelujah! Won't you wash my sins away?"
G                                      D
But now I'm singing my refrain, and this is what I say
            C      D     G
I say there never was a god

[Chorus]

         C   G
There is no God,
    D              G
So clap your hands together,
         C   G
There is no God,
   D             Em
No heaven and no hell.
D        C   G
There is no God,
              D    Em
We're all in this together,
D        C   G
There is no God,
    D                  G
So ring that victory bell.

Cadd9 G x2

[Last Chorus]

         C   G
There is no God,
    D              G
So clap your hands together,
         C   G
There is no God,
   D             Em
No heaven and no hell.
D        C   G
There is no God,
              D    Em
We're all in this together,
D        C   G
There is no God,
    D                  C  G
So ring that victory bell.
