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"
Chorus:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
Your faith was strong, you needed proof,
You saw her bathing on the roof.
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya.
She tied you to the 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 someone who outdrew ya.
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.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
