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
It goes like this the fourth the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled [bad word] hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe I've been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
