Hallelujah

I'm pretty much obsessed with this song right now.
Thing is, I've found the guitar chords for it, with the lyrics and everything, and I always knew it was a sad song, but only now have I realised how desperately sad it is.
Espescially the last verse.
Maybe there's a God above
But all I ever learned from love
Is how to shoot somebody who outgrew ya.
It's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light,
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah.
Wow. I think the best version is the Tim Minchin/Geraldine Quinn duet.

Closely followed by Jake's arrangement for "Rock Band 2"

I'm pretty sure that exactly nobody reads my blog, I just feel kindof obliged to write it.
Oh well.
