Halle-lute-yeah
[Verse 1] Now I’ve heard there was a secret chord That David played and it pleased the Lord But you don’t really care for lyute-strings, do ya? It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth The minor fall, the major lift A weathered hand composing Halle-lyute-yeah [Chorus] Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah [Verse 2] Your faith was strong, but you needed proof You tuned the strings beneath the roof Her beauty and the moonlight moved ya You held the neck, you felt the grain Each fragile note a hint of pain And from the wood you drew the Halle-lyute-yeah [Chorus] Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah [Verse 3] You say I played the tune in vain I don’t even know its name But if I did, well really, what’s it to ya? There’s a spark of truth in every string It doesn’t matter how you sing The sacred or the broken Halle-lyute-yeah [Chorus] Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah [Verse 4] I did my best, it wasn’t much I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch I played it straight, I didn’t come to fool ya And even when the sound rang wrong I’ll stand before the lord of song With nothing on my tongue but Halle-lyute-yeah [Chorus] Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah [Outro] Halle-lyute-yeah, Halle-lyute-yeah
