Now 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,
And she cut your hair
And from your lips
She drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Well, 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
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah
