That	David played and it	pleased the Lord

But	you don’t really care for music,	do you?

	G	C	D
Well	goes like this… the	fourth, the	fifth

	Emi	C
The	minor fall and the	major lift,

	D	H7	Emi
The	baffled King com	posing Halle	lujah

 

 

Your faith was strong but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty at the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you to her kitchen chair

She broke your throne and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

 

Maybe there’s a God above

And all I´ve ever learned from love

Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you

And it’s not a cry that you hear at night

it’s not someone who’s seen the light

it’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah
