Hallelujah By K.D. Lang
"Hallelujah", in its original version, is a song in 6/8 time which evokes the styles of both waltz and gospel music. Written by Leonard Cohen in the key of C major, the chord progression follows the lyric "it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, and the major lift": Cohen's original version contains several biblical references, most notably evoking the adulterous stories of King David and Bathsheba: "you saw her bathing on the roof, her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you".
Now 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 you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall,
the major lift
The baffled king composing
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
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,
Hallelujah
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really,
what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light
In every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken
Hallelujah
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
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 you
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
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah,
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
