Hallelujah

I've heard there was a secret chord

that David played, and it pleased the lord

but you don't really care for music, do ya'

it goes like this

the fourth, the fifth

the minor fall, and the major lift

the baffled king composing hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof

you saw her bathing on the roof

her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya'

she tied you to a kitchen chair

she broke your throne, and she cut your hair

and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

baby I have been here before

I know this room, I've walked this floor

I used to live alone before I knew Ya'

I've seen your flag on the marble arch

love is not a victory march

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know

what's really going on below

but now you never show it to me, do Ya'

and remember when I moved in with you

the holy dove was movin' 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 at someone who outdrew Ya'

It's not a cry you can hear at night

It's not somebody who has seen the light

It's a cold at it'sa broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
