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 yah?

Well, it goes like this:

The fouth, the fifth, the minor fall and 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 in the moonlight overthrew yah.

She tied you to her kitchen chair she broke your thrown,

She cut your hair

And from your lips shew drew the hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Oh, baby I have been here before

I've seen this room, and I walked this floor

You know, I used to live alone before I knew yah

And I've seen your flag on the marble arch

And love is not a victory march

It's cold and it's a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know

What's really goin' on below

But now you never show that to me do you

And remember when I moved in you

The holy dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well maybe there is a God above

But, all I've ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebory who outdrew yah

And it's not a cry that you hear at night

It's not somebory who's seen the light

It's cold and it's broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
