Rufus Wainwright - Hallelujah
-- G-dur --
G Em
I heard there was a secret chord
G Em
that David played and it pleased the Lord,
C D G D
But you don't really care for music do you?
G C D
It goes like this the fourth the fifth,
Em C D
the minor fall and the major lift
D Hm Em
The baffled king composing hallelujah
C Em C G D G D
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Halleluuu-uuuja
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, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the 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 conan it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
There was a time you let me know
Whats real and going on below
But now you never show it to me do you?
I remember when I moved in you
The holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Maybe there's a god above
Then all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone while I drew you
Its not a cry you can hear at night
Its not somebody whos seen the light
It's a conan it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah x 4
