I 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. Well you faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you. Well she tied you to a kitchen chair She broke your throne and cut your hair And from your lips she drew hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. You say I took the name in vain I don't even know the name But if I did, well really what's it to you? There's a blaze of light in every word It doesn't matter which you heard The holy or the broken, Hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. I did my best, it wasn't much I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you. And even thought it all went wrong I'll stand before the lord of song With nothing on my tongue but hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Baby, I've been here before I've seen this room and I've walked the floor I used to live alone before I knew you. But I've seen your flag on the marble arch Our love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Maybe there's a god above But all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you. It's not a cry you hear at night It's not someone who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah, hallelujah. |
