Lyrics and Music by Christina Perri and David Hodges

Intro: F | F C | Dm7 | Dm7 F
       Bb | Bb | F | F

Bb
Heart beats fast,
            F
Colours and promises,
          Dm7
How to be brave;
          C         F     Bb
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
                 F
But watching you stand alone,
          Dm7
All of my doubt
         C     F        Gm7
Suddenly goes away, somehow…

 Gm7           Dm C
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     F
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Dm7
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
            C
     I have loved you
           Bb
     For a thousand years,
                             F             C
     And I’ll love you for a thousand more.

Instrumental: Bb C | Bb

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…

   Gm7 C    Dm Dm7 C
   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.

     I’ll love you for a thousand more.

     And all along I believed I would find you.
