I've heard there was a secret chord   That David played and it pleased the Lord   But you don't really care for music, do you?      It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth   The minor fall, 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 a kitchen chair   She broke your throne, she cut your hair   And from your lips she drew the hallelujah      Hallelujah, hallelujah   Hallelujah, hallelujah      Maybe I've been here before   I know this room, I've walked this floor   I used to live alone before I knew you      I've seen your flag on the marble arch   Love is not a victory march   It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah      Hallelujah, hallelujah   Hallelujah, hallelujah      There was a time you let me know   What's real and going on below   But now you never show it to me, do you?      And remember when I moved in you?   The holy dark was moving too   And every breath we drew was hallelujah      Hallelujah, hallelujah   Hallelujah, hallelujah      Maybe there's a God above   And all I ever learned from love   Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you      And it's not a cry you can hear at night   It's not somebody who's seen the light   It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah      Hallelujah, hallelujah   Hallelujah, hallelujah      Hallelujah, hallelujah   Hallelujah, hallelujah
