I heard there was a secret chord That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well it goes like this: The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah
Baby I've been here before I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
And 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 Hallelujah
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
Maybe there's a God above But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot someone who outdrew you
And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not someone who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
I did my best but it wasn't much I couldn't feel so I tried to touch
I tell the truth, I didn't come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong I stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
Hallelujah. Hallelujah.
