Intro: C# | C# G#/C | Bbm7 | Bbm7 C#add9
       F# | F# | C#/G# | C#sus2/G#

F#sus2
Heart beats fast,
            C#/F
Colours and promises,
          Bbm7
How to be brave;
          G#/C      C#    F#sus2
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
                 C#/F
But watching you stand alone,
          Bbm7
All of my doubt
         G#/C  C#maj    Ebm7
Suddenly goes away, somehow…

 Ebm7  Ebm7sus2 Bbm G#
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     C#                    C#add9  C#sus2/C
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Bbm7
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
            G#
     I have loved you
           F#add9
     For a thousand years,
                             C#sus4/G# C#/G# G#
     And I’ll love you for a thousand more.

Instrumental: F#add9 G# | F#sus2

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…
          
   Ebm7 G#  Bbm Bbm7 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.
