Hallelujah |
| Well I heard there was a secret chord |
| That David played and it pleased the Lord |
| But you don't really care for music, do ya |
| 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 and the moonlight overthrew you |
| She tied you to her kitchen chair |
| She broke your throne and she cut your hair |
| And from your lips she drew the hallelujah... |
| Hallelujah, hallelujah... |
| Hallelujah, hallelujah.... |
| 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 and it's a broken hallelujah... |
| Hallelujah, hallelujah... |
| Hallelujah, hallelujah.... |
| There was a time when you let me know |
| What's really going on below |
| But now you never show that to me, do ya |
| But 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's a God above |
| 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... |
