Hallelujah

I 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

Well, 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 ya
She tied you to the kitchen chair
She broke your throne and cut your hair
And from your lips she drew a hallelujah

Well, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Well, baby I've been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew ya
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
But love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Well, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

There was a time that 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 ghost was moving too
And every breath we drew was hallelujah

Well, 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 ya
But 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

Well, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah
