A minorAm
 I've been a martyr for love
And I will die in the flames
As I draw my last breath
As I'm close in on death
         DmDm C majorC
I will call out your name

A minorAm
I've been a martyr for love
Nailed up on the cross
While you're having your fun
As the damage is done
        DmDm C majorC
I'm assessing the cost


Chorus:
G+G       A minorAm     DmDm      C majorC
 I knew what I was letting myself in for
G+G       A minorAm     DmDm      C majorC
 I knew that I could never even the score


I've been a martyr for love
I need to be by your side
I have knelt at your feet
I have felt your deceit
Couldn't leave if I tried


I've been a martyr for love
Tortured every hour
From the day I was born
I've been moved like a pawn
By the greatest of powers


Chorus:
I knew that I would have to suffer in vain
A augmentedA way that I would never outgrow the pain


(Riff plays till the end)
I've been a martyr for love
I've been a martyr for love
