Intro

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 fith

the minor fall and the major lift

the baffled king composing hallelujah

Chorus

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah

Verse 2

Well 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 her kitchen chair

she broke your throne and she cut your hair

and from your lips she drew the hallelujah

Chorus

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah

Verse 3

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 ya

i've seen your flag on the marble arch

but love is not a victory march

its a cold and its a broken hallelujah

Chorus

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah

Verse 4

Well there was a time when you let me know

what's really going on below

but now you never show that to me do ya

but remember when I moved in you

and the holY dove was moving to

and every breathe we drew was hallelujah

Chorus

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah

Verse 5

Well, mabey there's a god abouve

but all I ever learned from love

was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you

its not a cry you hear at night

its not someBODY who's seen the light

its a cold and its a broken hallelujah

Chorus

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelu-u-u-u-jah
