I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don′t really care for music
do you?
Well, it goes like this,the fourth
the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Well your faith was strong
But you needed proof
You saw her bathing, on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight
overthrew you
And she tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
But from your lips she drew the halleluyah, hmm
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Yeah, well baby I've been here before I′ve seen this room and I've walked this floor, you know
I used to live alone before I knew you And I've seen your flag on the
marble arch
But love is not some victory march It′s a cold and it′s a broken halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Well, there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do you?
Remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath you drew was halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Oh, mother, I can feel
The soil falling over my head
And as I climb into an empty bed
Oh, well, enough said
I know it′s over, still I cling
I don't know where else I can go
Oh, well
Oh, mother, I can feel
The soil falling over my head, oh
Maybe there is a God above
But 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 somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it′s all broken
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Hallelu
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah-hmm
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Halleluyah
Good night everybody
Thank you so much
Michael Tyle over there, people
If you don′t leave now we gonna freak out
We got jobs tomorrow, let's go with me buddy
Milk Grador on the bass
Myle Johnson on the drum
You guys don′t know this one
I need to do it, thank you very much
