Intro: G D Em D G
Verse:
G D Em
Two languages I heard when I was young
C G
One said make-believe, the other said run.
G D Em
But I have no peace when I try to pretend,
C G D
And running never got me anywhere in the end.
C
Something deep inside me was longing just to breathe
G D
And neither voice I followed ever made me truly free.
Pre-Chorus
G Em7 Em D
A heart divided cannot bear the weight
C G D
I'd almost given up and then I found this place
C
Where broken children gather and they sing their Father's song
G D
My heart was aching at the sound, I had to sing along
C G
And find me on my knees, with nothing left to hide
D Em
I'll be by the river, leaving all my shame behind
C G
I'll be singing loud, I'll be singing clear
D C
Broken Hallelujahs for everyone to hear
Em D C
Singing broken Hallelujahs
C G
You can find me here

Verse:
G D Em G
Well history keeps trying to repeat
C G
And the only way to stop its curse is learning how to speak
Em7 Em G
The language that is written in our hearts
C G D
Freedom comes when we find the place where mercy starts
Pre-Chorus
C
So children gather 'round me now and sing that holy song
G D
Where those that do not have a home can finally belong
C G
And find me on my knees, with nothing left to hide
D Em
I'll be by the river, leaving all my shame behind
C G
I'll be singing loud, I'll be singing clear

Broken Hallelujahs for everyone to hear
Em D C
Singing broken Hallelujahs
