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? It goes like thisthe 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 in the moonlight overthrew you She tied you to the kitchen chair She broke your throne, and she cuts your hair And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah Hallelujah, hallelujah
Maybe there is a god above But all I’ve ever learned from love was How to shoot somebody who outdrew you But it’s not to cry that you hear at night As not somebody who see the light It’s a colder and it’s broken hallelujah
