[ Originally by Leonard Cohen ]
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 ya?
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
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 the kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, mm
Well, maybe there's a God above
That's for me all I've ever leant from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
But it's not a crime that you're here tonight
It's not some pilgrim who claims to have seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
(Hallelujah, hallelujah)
(Hallelujah, hallelujah)
(Hallelujah, hallelujah)
(Hallelujah) yeah
Hallelujah
