hallelujah

i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord
but you dont really care for music do you
goes like this the fourth the fifth
the minor fall and 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 her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah
hallelujah hallelujah
hallelujah hallelujah
baby ive been here before
ive seen this room and ive walked this floor
i used to live alone before i knew you
ive seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not a victory march
its a cold and its a broken hallelujah
hallelujah hallelujah
hallelujah hallelujah
well maybe theres a god above
but all ive ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
its not a cry that you hear at night
its not somebody whos seen the light
its a cold and its a broken hallelujah
hallelujah hallelujah
hallelujah <-8>hallelujah
