Hallelujah

Lyrics

Well I heard there was a secret chord
 that David played and it pleased the Lord
 well you don't really care for music, do ya
 Well it goes like this:
 The fourth, the fifth, and the minor fall the major lift
 The baffled king composing Hallelujah
 Hallelujah x4
 Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
 You saw her bathing on the roof
 Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
 she ties you to her kitchen chair
 She broke your throne she cut your hair
 and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
 Hallelujah x4
 Well 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
 But remember when I moved in you
 And the holy dove was moving too
 And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
 Hallelujah x4
 well i know that there's a God above
 But all I've ever learned from love
 Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
 well 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
 Hallelujah x 14
