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?
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 Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof, you know Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
And she tied you to her kitchen chair And she broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah Hallelujah, 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 holds hallelujah And it's not a cry that 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
Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah
