Hallelujah

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, 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" [Chorus] Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 2] Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you She tied you to a kitchen chair And she broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah [Chorus] Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 3] 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 you And I've seen your flag on the marble arch But love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah [Chorus] Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 4] There was a time you let me know What's really going on below But now you never show that to me, do you? And remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah [Chorus] Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah [Verse 5] Maybe there's a God above But all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah [Chorus] Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah
