I heard there was a secret chord That David played and it pleased the lord You don't really care for music, do ya It goes like this: the 4th the 5th 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 and the moonlight over threw ya 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
There was a time you let me know What's really going on below Now you never show it to me, do ya I remember when I moved in you The holy dove she was movin' too And every breath we drew was hallelujah Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
I did my best, it wasn't much I couldn't feel so I tried to touch, I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya And even though it all went wrong I'll stand before the lord of song With nothing on my tongue but hallelujah, Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
