          (sacrifices...)
        Sacrifices   I will make
        I'm ready to give   as well as take
        One thing I need is your respect
        One thing I can't take is your neglect
        G7sus4 [guitar plays D5: xx023x]
        More than anything, I need your love

        Then troubles are easy to rise above
