Lyrics

i heard there was a secret chord, that david played, and it pleased the lord, you don't really care for music, do ya?, well it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, the baffled king composing hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, well your faith was strong but you needed proof, you saw her bathing on the roof, her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya, well she tied you to her kitchen chair, she broke your throne and cut your hair, and from your lips she drew hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, baby i've been here before, i've seen this room and i've walked the floor, used to live alone before i knew ya, but i've seen your flag on the marble arch, our love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, maybe there's a god above, but all i've ever learned from love, was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya, it's not a cry that you hear at night, it's not someone who's seen the light, it's a cold and broken hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.
