Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
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 chord, the major lift,
The baffled king composing Hallelujah,
REFRAIN
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
VERSE 2
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 and she cut your hair,
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
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 you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch,
Love is not a vict'ry march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
VERSE 4
Maybe there's a god above,
But all I ever learn'd from love
Was how to shoot somebody who out drew you
It's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
