Lyrics

I've heard that there's 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 in the moonlight overthrew ya
 She tied you to her kitchen chair
 She broke your throne and she cut your hair
 And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 ♪
 Oh darlin' I've been here before
 I've seen this room, I've walked these floors
 You know, I used to live alone before I knew ya
 I've seen your flag on the marble arch
 And 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 really going on below
 But now you never show that to me, do ya?
 Remember when I moved in you
 The Holy dove was moving too
 And every breath you drew was Hallelujah
 It was Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 So maybe there's a God above
 But all I've ever learned from love
 Is how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
 It's not a cry that you hear in the night
 It's not somebody who's seen the light
 It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
 It was Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 ♪
 Thank you
