Hallelujah

Well I've heard there was a secret chord

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 you

And she tied you to a kitchen chair

She broke your throne

She cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Well maybe there's a God above

But all I ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you.

And it's not a cry you can hear at night

It's not somebody who's seen the light

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

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
