Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah

Well I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well 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 her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew ya
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

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?
And remember when I moved in you?
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who'd OUT DREW YA
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen in the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

  • @popalada this is not just a version, this is the original:)

  • The one who uploaded this can be sent to jail and have this awesome video shut down. STOP S.O.P.A! Don't be defeated!

  • Finally! i found the RIGHT person that sung this song

    In my opinion he is better at this song that ive heard so far

  • I used to think that this was the best version of this song.....then I saw KD Lang do it as a tribute to Cohen in 2005. Jeff does it well, make no mistake, but he is not is the same musical or spiritual sphere as KD Lang. Check it out. There will be no more discussion or second thoughts.

  • "she tied you to her kitchen chair

    And she broke your throne and she cut your hair"

    The story of Samson and Delilah

  • @ScreamForScreamo1 only three person knows the secreat chord  David, God and Jeff Buckley.

  • 1 PERSON DIDNT KNOW THE SECRET CHORD. -.-
