[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Now I've heard
there was a s
ecret chord
That David pla
yed, and it pl
eased the Lord
But you don't
really care fo
r music, do yo
u?
It goes like t
his, the fourt
h, the fifth
The minor fall
, the major li
ft
The baffled ki
ng composing,
hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, ha
llelujah, hall
elujah, hallel
u - jah
[Verse 2]
Your faith was
strong, but y
ou needed proo
f
You saw her ba
thing on the r
oof
Her beauty and
the moonlight
overthrew ya
She tied you t
o a kitchen ch
air
She broke your
throne, and s
he cut your ha
ir
And from your
lips she drew
the hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, ha
llelujah, hall
elujah, hallel
u - jah
[Verse 3]
Baby, I've bee
n here before
I know this ro
om, I've walke
d this floor
I used to live
alone before
I knew you
I've seen your
flag on the m
arble arch
Love is not a
victory march
It's a cold, a
nd it's a brok
en hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, ha
llelujah, hall
elujah, hallel
u - jah
[Verse 4]
There was a ti
me when you le
t me know
What's really
going on below
But now you ne
ver show it to
me, do you?
And remember w
hen I moved in
you
The holy dove
was moving too
And every brea
th we drew was
hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, ha
llelujah, hall
elujah, hallel
u - jah
[Verse 5]
Maybe there's
a God above
And all I ever
learned from
love
Was how to sho
ot at someone
who outdrew yo
u
It's not a cry
you can hear
at night
It's not someb
ody who has se
en the light
It's a cold, a
nd it's a brok
en hallelujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, ha
llelujah, hall
elujah, hallel
u - jah
[Verse 6]
You say I took
the name in v
ain
Though I don't
even know the
name
But if I did,
well really, w
hat's it to ya
?
There's a blaz
e of light in
every word
It doesn't mat
ter which you
heard
The holy or th
e broken halle
lujah
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, ha
llelujah, hall
elujah, hallel
u - jah
[Verse 7]
I did my best,
it wasn't muc
h
I couldn't fee
l, so I tried
to touch
I've told the
truth, I didn'
t come to fool
ya
And even thoug
h it all went
wrong
I'll stand bef
ore the Lord o
f Song
With nothing o
n my tongue bu
t hallelujah
[Outro]

Hallelujah, ha
llelujah, hall
