Ive heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the lord
But you dont really care for music do you?
It goes like this the fourth, the fifth,
The minor fall and 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
Baby i have been here before
I know this room ive walked this floor
I used to live alone before i knew you
Ive seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
Its a cold and its a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
There was a time you let me know
Whats 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 breathe we drew was hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, halleluah
Maybe theres a god above
And all i ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
Its not a cry you can hear at night
Its not somebody whos seen the light
Its a cold and its a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
