this song is written by Mr. Elton John and it`s called Sacrifice. I`d never recognized this song until an irish girl named Sinead O`Connor sang it in her own special version.
In this version the song is played on a synthesizer, Key Eb, so it may be easier for you to capo on the 3rd Fret, although I have guitarified some parts. The lyrics aren`t placed exactly under the correspondending notes, so you better listen to the song - you`ll find it on:
Two rooms - Celebrating the songs of Elton John and Bernie Taupin.
