Sacrifice

	  		 

The way I've written this allows it to either be played in Drop D with power chords on electric or in standard 
tuning acoustically. Any (bracketed) chords are the acoustic chords only and any square bracketed chords are 
not in the actual song but I think they sound better there.

This continues into Verses 1 and 2: 

verse 1: 
D5 
Close your eyes now time for dreams, death is never what it seems 
Did the things you thought you should, all the things they said were good 

verse 2: 
D5 
All your faith in ancient ways leaves you trapped inside a maze 
D5                                                          E        E        E       
Take the lives of those you need. Sow the death and reap the     seed 
E      E     E      E      E 
Reap the   seed 

verse 3: 
Am                                                   F     E          F E        F E        F E 
Born an angel heaven sent, falls from grace are never ele - gant 
Am                                                            F 
Stars will drop out of the sky, the moon will sadly watch the roses die 

PreChorus 1: 
F  Em    F        Em        F          Em     Dm 
In vain. Lost, no gain. But you're not taking me 

Chorus: 
Am                F     Dm   C Dm* 
You can't have my life 
Am                F     Dm   
I'm not your sacrifice 
C   Dm*  Fmaj7    Em            Dm            Am         
You can try but I'm free and you won't conquer me 
Fdim(F)                           E    E/G#  Am 
I won't crawl, most of all I won't fall for     you 

verse 4: 
Am                                                    F     E          F E        F E        F E 
Show them gods and deities. Blind and keep the people on their knees 
Am                                                            F               
Pierce the sky escape your fate. The more you try the more you'll just breed hate 

PreChorus 2: 
    Em    F          Em      F         Em       Dm 
And lies. Truth will rise, revealed by mirrored eyes. 

Bridge: There are no chords, but the melody goes like this:

N/C 
What if all the plans you made were not worth the price you paid? 
Even with the lives you stole, still no closer to your goal.
