Lyrics and Music by Christina Perri and David Hodges

Intro: F# | F# C# | Ebm7 | Ebm7 F#
       B | B | F# | F#

B
Heart beats fast,
            F#
Colours and promises,
          Ebm7
How to be brave;
          C#        F#    B
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
                 F#
But watching you stand alone,
          Ebm7
All of my doubt
         C#    F#       G#m7
Suddenly goes away, somehow…

 G#m7          Ebm C#
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     F#
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Ebm7
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
            C#
     I have loved you
           B
     For a thousand years,
                             F#            C#
     And I’ll love you for a thousand more.

Instrumental: B C# | B

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…

   G#m7 C#  Ebm Ebm7 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.

 G#m7  C#   Ebm 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.

     For a thousand years,
     I’ll love you for a thousand more.
