Well I've heard there was a secret chord

That David played, and he pleased the Lord

But you don't really care for music, do you?

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 in the moonlight overthrew you

And she tied you to her kitchen chair

And she broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips you drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Well baby I've been here before

I've seen this room and I've walked this floor, you know,

I used to live alone before I knew you

And I've seen your flag on the marble arch

And love is not a victory march

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

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

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 you?

I remember when I moved in you

And the Holy Dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Maybe there is a God above

But all I've ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you

And 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, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah,

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah.
