Lyrics and Music by Christina Perri and David Hodges


Intro: C | C G/B | Am7 | Am7 Cadd9
       F | F | C/G | Csus2/G

Fsus2
Heart beats fast,
            C/E
Colours and promises,
          Am7
How to be brave;
          G/B       C     Fsus2
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
                 C/E
But watching you stand alone,
          Am7
All of my doubt
         G/B   Cmaj     Dm7
Suddenly goes away, somehow…

 Dm7   Dm7sus2 Am G
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     C                     Cadd9   Csus2/B
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Am7
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
            G
     I have loved you
           Fadd9
     For a thousand years,
                             Csus4/G  C/G  G
     And I’ll love you for a thousand more.

Instrumental: Fadd9 G | Fsus2

Time stands still,
Beauty in all she is.
I will be brave -
I will not let anything take away
What’s standing in front of me.
Every breath,
Every hour has come to this…
          
   Dm7 G    Am Am7 G
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
     I have loved you
     For a thousand years,
     I’ll love you for a thousand more.

     And all along I believed I would find you.
     Time has brought your heart to me,
     I have loved you
     For a thousand years,
     I’ll love you for a thousand more.

 Dm7        Am G
   One step closer,
 Dm7   G    Am G
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
     I have loved you
     For a thousand years,
     I’ll love you for a thousand more.

     And all along I believed I would find you.
     Time has brought your heart to me,
     I have loved you
     For a thousand years,
     I’ll love you for a thousand more.
