Hallelujah

[Verse 1]
I've 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, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 2]
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 a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 3]
Well baby, I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
But I've seen your flag on the marble arch
And love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it is a broken Hallelujah

[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 4]
Well, there was a time when you'd let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do you?
But remember when I moved in you
And the Holy Ghost was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

[Verse 5]
Well, maybe there is a God above
But all that I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
It's not a cry that you hear at night
And it is not somebody who has seen the light
It's a cold and it is a broken Hallelujah

[Chorus]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
