Well I hear 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, the major lift, the baffled king composes Hallelujahs

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

Well Your faith was strong and you needed proof, you saw her bathing on the roof, her beauty and her two piece man they threw ya
She tied you to her kitchen chair, and she broke your throne, and she cut your hair, and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

You say I took the name in vain, but I don't even know the name
If I did, then really what's it to ya
There's a blaze of light in every word, it doesn't matter what you've heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

Well I did my best but it wasn't much, I couldn't feel so I tried to touch
I've told the truth and I didn't come to fool ya,
Even though it all went wrong, I'll stand before the Lord's psalm with nothing on my tongue, God Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah
