oh
well i heard there was a secret chord
david played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music do you
and it goes like this the 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
when you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
and she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
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
i've seen your flag on the marble arch
and love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
well maybe there's a god above
but all i've ever learned from love
was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
it's not a cry you can hear at night
it's not somebody who has seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
hallelujah
you
