i ve heard there was a secret chord that david played and that pleased the lord but you don t really care for music do ya and it goes like this the fourth the fifth the minor fall and the major lift the baffled king composing hallelujah your faith was strong but you needed proof you saw her bathing on the roof her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya but she tied you to her kitchen chair she broke your throne and she cut your hair and from your lips she drew the hallelujah baby i ve been here before i ve seen this room and i ve walked this floor you know i used to live alone before i knew ya and i ve seen your flag on the marble arch and love is not some sort of a victory march it s a cold and it s a broken hallelujah there was a time you let me know what s really going on below but now you never show that to me do ya but remember when i moved in you and the holy dove was moving too and every breath we drew was hallelujah maybe there s a god above but all i ve ever learned from love is how you shoot somebody who outdrew ya and it s not a cry of joy that you hear at night it s not somebody who s seen the light it s a cold and it s a broken hallelujah1
