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 ya?
It goes like this
the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, 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 ya
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.
Maybe there's a God above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at
somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry you can 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, hallelujah.
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
hallelujah, hallelujah.
