Lyrics and Music by Christina Perri and David Hodges


Intro: B | B F# | G#m7 | G#m7 Badd9
       E | E | B | Bsus2

Esus2
Heart beats fast,
            B   
Colours and promises,
          G#m7
How to be brave;
          F#        B     Esus2
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
                 B   
But watching you stand alone,
          G#m7
All of my doubt
         F#    Bmaj     C#m7
Suddenly goes away, somehow…

 C#m7  C#m7sus2 G#m F#
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     B                     Badd9   Bsus2   
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     G#m7
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
            F#
     I have loved you
           Eadd9
     For a thousand years,
                             Bsus4    B    F#
     And I’ll love you for a thousand more.

Instrumental: Eadd9 F# | Esus2

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…
          
   C#m7 F#  G#m G#m7 F#
   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.
