Well I've heard there was a sacred chord
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 fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled King composing HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, HallelujahWell, your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew youAnd she tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, HallelujahWell baby I have been here before
I've seen this room, and I've walked this floor
You know I used to live alone before I knew yaAnd I've seen your flag on the marble arch
And love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah, yea
Hallelujah, HallelujahWell 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 do ya?And remember when I moved with you
The holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, HallelujahWell maybe there is a God above
But all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew youAnd 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, ohHallelujah, oh Hallelujah
Hallelujah, HallelujahHallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
