Symphony X - The Sacrifice

Em Bm Em Bm Em
Your eyes, singing to me sweet lullabies
C A B Em
While you lay there in submission
Forbidden desire alone in the moonlight
Hearts afire - burn away our inhibitions

D7M A Bm F#m E

Am B� Am/C
When the stars lose their fire
G C E
And night steals the morning away
Am Dm
Forever and the day
F B� E
I will stay - I will stay here with you my love

F#m C#m F#m C#m F#m

Sacrifice, a heartbeat away from paradise
D B C# F#m
All my reason�s giving way to temptation
Fear and shame - looking for someone else to blame
We're devoured by these fruitless accusations

D#m .... D#m C# B

Em
With every fleeting breath I take
Am B Em
Maybe our love was a mistake
Em
Eternal life - I�d trade it for
A
One moment beside you...

D7M A Bm F#m E

When the stars lose their fire

And night steals the morning away
Forever and the day
I will stay - I will stay here with you my love

Am E5 C5 B5

[Solo: M.Romeo]

When the stars lose their fire

And night steals the morning away
Forever and the day

When the stars lose their fire

And night steals the morning away
Forever and the day
I will stay - I will stay here with you my love
