Well I've heard there was a secret chord 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
And 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 Well maybe there's a God above But all I ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you.
And it's not a cry you can hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
