[Verse 1]
I heard there was a secret chord
That 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 composes hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Verse 2]
Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew ya
Well she tied ya to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew a hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Verse 3]
Well baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
You know I used to live alone before I knew ya
But I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Our love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
[Verse 4]
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
[Outro]
Hallow
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
