Hallelujah

Lyrics

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
 She cut your hair
 And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Maybe I have been here before
 I know this room, I've walked this floor
 I used to live alone before I knew you
 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 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 dark was moving too
 And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Maybe there's a God above
 And all I ever learned from love
 Was how to shoot at someone 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
 
 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
 She cut your hair
 And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Maybe I have been here before
 I know this room, I've walked this floor
 I used to live alone before I knew you
 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 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 dark was moving too
 And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Hallelujah
 Maybe there's a God above
 And all I ever learned from love
 Was how to shoot at someone 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
