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?
And 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 in the moonlight overthrew you.
She tied you to a kitchen chair.
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair.
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
You say I took the Name in vain,
But I don't even know the Name
And 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've 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 told the truth. I didn't try to fool you.
And even though it all went wrong
I stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Halleluuu-
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Halleluuu -
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
- Luuuujah
