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 you?

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 and the moonlight overthrew you

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 someone who outdrew you

It's not a cry you can hear at night

It's not somebody who's seen the light

Its a cold and its a broken Hallelujah



Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

Hallelujah, Hallelu- Hallelujah,

and Hallelujah, Hallelujah,

Halleluuuuuuuujah,

Halleluuuujah.
