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 you?

It goes like this

The fourth, the fifth

The minor fall, 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 you

She tied you to a kitchen chair

She broke your throne and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Now maybe there's a God above

And all I ever learned from love

Is how to shoot at someone who outdrew you

But it's not a cry that you hear tonight

It's not somebody who claims to seen the light

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

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Oh, people I've been here before

I know this room, and I've walked this floor

You seen, I used to live alone before I knew you

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

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

There was a time when you let me know

What's real and going on below

But now you never show it to me, do you?

And remember when I moved in you

The holy dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

I did my best, I know it wasn't much

I couldn't feel, so I learned to touch

I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you

And even though

It all went wrong

I'll stand right here before the lord of song

With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah
