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. |
|
It goes like this the fourth the fifth, |
|
the minor fall and the major lift |
|
The baffled king composing hallelujah |
|
|
|
Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja, Halleluja |
|
|
|
|
|
Now I heard there was a secret chord |
|
that David played and it pleased the Lord |
|
But you don't really care for music do ya |
|
It goes like this the fourth the fifth |
|
the minor fall and 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 ya |
|
She tied you to a kitchen chair |
|
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair |
|
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah |
|
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
|
You say I took the name in vain |
|
I don't even know the name |
|
But if I did, well really, what's it to ya? |
|
There's a blaze of light in every word |
|
It doesn't matter which you heard |
|
The holy or the broken Hallelujah |
|
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
|
I did my best, it wasn't much |
|
I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch |
|
I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya |
|
And even though it all went wrong |
|
I'll stand before the Lord of Song |
|
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah |
|
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
|
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah |
|
