Well, I heard there was a secret chord
|
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
|
But You don't really care for music, do ya?
|
Well it goes like this
|
The fourth, the fifth
|
The minor fall, and the major lift
|
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
|
|
Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof
|
You saw her bathing on the roof
|
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
|
And she tied you to her kitchen chair
|
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
|
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
|
|
Well Baby, I've been here before
|
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
|
You know, I used to live alone before I knew ya
|
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
|
Our love is not a victory march
|
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
|
|
Well there was a time when you let me know
|
What's really going on below
|
But now you never show that to me, do ya
|
But remember when I moved in you
|
And the holy dove was moving too
|
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
|
|
Hallelujah Hallelujah
|
Hallelujah Hallelujah
|
|
Maybe there’s a God above
|
But all I've ever learned from love
|
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
|
And It's not a cry that you hear at night
|
It's not someone who's seen the light
|
It's a cold and its a broken Hallelujah
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah...
|
