Sacrifice - Elton John

1. Strophe: 

It's a human sign - when things go wrong 

When the scent of her lingers - and temptations strong 

Into the bound´ry - of each married man 

Sweet deceit comes callin' - and negative to lie 

Cold cold heart - hard done by you 

Some things look better baby - just passin' through 

 

1. Refrain: 

And it's not sacrifice just a simple world 

It's two hearts living in two separate worlds 

But it's no sacrifice no sacrifice  

it's no sacrifi-i-ice at all 

 

2. Strophe: 

Mutual misunderstanding after the fact 

Sensitivity builds a prison - in the final act 

We lose direction - no stone unturned 

No tears to damn you - when jealousy burns 

Cold cold heart - hard done by you 

Some things look better baby - just passin' through 

 

2. Refrain: 

And it's not sacrifice just a simple world 

It's two hearts living in two separate worlds 

But it's no sacrifice no sacrifice  

it's no sacrifi-i-ice at all 

 

Instrumental: 8 Takte

 

3. Strophe: (kurz) 

Cold cold heart - hard done by you 

Some things look better baby - just passin' through 

 

3. Refrain: 

And it's not sacrifice just a simple world 

It's two hearts living in two separate worlds 

But it's no sacrifice no sacrifice  

it's no sacrifi-i-ice at all 

 

Coda: 

No sacrifice at all 

No sacrifice at all 

No sacrifice at all 

No sacrifice at all
