Hallelujah

Leonard Cohen

I heard there
Was a secret chord
That david played
And it pleased the lord
You don't really care
For music, do ya
It goes like this
The 4th the 5th
The minor fall
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
Over threw ya
She tied you
To her kitchen chair
She broke your throne
And she cut your hair
And from your lips
She drew the hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah

There was a time
You let me know
What's really
Going on below
Now you never
Show it to me, do ya
I remember
When i moved in you
The holy dove
She was movin' too
And every breath
We drew was 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
