Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah
Author And Composer: Leonard Cohen
Now I heard there was a
|
Secret cord
|
That David played,
|
And it pleased the lord
|
But you don't really care of music,
|
Do you?
|
It goes like this the fourth,
|
The fifth
|
The minor fall, the major lift
|
The baffled king composing,
|
Hallelujah.
|
Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah,
|
Hallelu-u-jah.
|
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,
|
Hallelu-u-jah.
|
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
|
Its a cold and its a broken
|
Hallelujah
|
Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah,
|
Hallelu-u-jah.
|
You say I took the name in vain.
|
I don't even know the name.
|
But if I did,well really,
|
That's it to ya?
|
There's a blaze of light
|
In every word.
|
It doesn't matter which you herd.
|
The holy or the broken
|
Hallelujah.
|
Hallelujah,hallelujah, hallelujah,
|
Hallelu-u-jah.
|
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.×3
|
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
|
Hallelujah, hallelu-u-jah.
