Hallelujah (Live from Chicago) Lyrics

[Part I: Leonard Cohen Cover]

[Verse]
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"


[Chorus: Hayley Williams & Crowd]
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah


[Part II: Hallelujah]

[Verse 1]
Somehow everything's gonna fall right into place
If we only had a way to make it all fall faster everyday
If only time flew like a dove
Well, God, make it fly faster than I'm falling in love

[Spoken]
You feel that, Chicago?!
Sing it out
[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Hayley Williams & Josh Farro]
This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming
"Hallelujah!"
We'll make it last forever

[Verse 2: Hayley Williams & Crowd]
Holding onto patience wearing thin
I can't force these eyes to see the end
If only time flew like a dove
Well, we could watch it fly and just keep looking up

[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Hayley Williams & Josh Farro]
This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming
"Hallelujah!"
We'll make it last forever

[Spoken]
Alright!

[Bridge]
We've got time on our hands
And we've got
Got nothing but time on our hands
Got nothing but, got nothing but
Got nothing but time on our hands
[Chorus: Hayley Williams, Hayley Williams & Josh Farro]
This time we're not giving up, ooh-ooh
Let's make it last forever
Screaming "Hallelujah!"
"Hallelujah!"

[Spoken]
Thank you, Chicago!
Good night!

[Crowd Chant]
One more song!
One more song!
One more song!
One more song!
One more song!
One more song!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
