Hallelujah

[Verse 1]

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"

[Chorus]

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 2]

Well, your faith was strong, but, you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you, mm-mmh

She tied you to her kitchen chair

She broke your throne and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

[Chorus]

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 3]

Well, baby, I've been here before

I've seen this room and I've walked this floor

I used to live alone before I knew ya

And 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

[Chorus]

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 4]

Maybe there's a God above

But all I've ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya'

It was not a cry that you hear at night

It's not somebody who has seen the light

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

[Chorus]

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
