A Thousand Years - Christina Perri

[Intro]
G Em  C     G D

[Verse 1]
C

Heartbeats fast

           G

Colors and promises

          Em

How to be brave

          D              C

How can I love when I'm afraid to fall

                 G

But watching you stand alone

          Em             D             Am

All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

         Em  D

One step closer

[Chorus]
G

I have died every day waiting for you

Em                               D

Darling don't be afraid I have loved you

       C

For a thousand years

                 D

I love you for a thousand more

[Verse 2]
C

Time stands still

          G

Beauty in all she is

          Em

I will be brave

           D            C

I will not let anything take away

                   G

What's standing in front of me

      Em

Every breath

      D                Am

Every hour has come to this

         Em  D

One step closer

[Chorus]
G

I have died every day waiting for you

Em                            D

Darling don't be afraid I have loved you

       C

For a thousand years

                 D

I love you for a thousand more

[Bridge]
G

And all along I believed I would find you

Em

Time has brought your heart to me

       D                C

I have loved you for a thousand years

                 D

I love you for a thousand more

[Instrumental]
G Em  C      D  Am

[Pre-Chorus]
         Em  D     Am

One step closer

         Em  D

One step closer

[Chorus]
G

I have died every day waiting for you

Em                              D

Darling don't be afraid I have loved you

       C

For a thousand years

                 D

I love you for a thousand more

[Outro]
G

And all along I believed I would find you

Em

Time has brought your heart to me

I have loved you for a thousand years

                 D

I love you for a thousand more

C      Em   C      Em   D
