Intro: G# | G# Eb | Fm7 | Fm7 G#add9
       C# | C# | G# | G#sus2

C#sus2
Heart beats fast,
            G#  
Colours and promises,
          Fm7
How to be brave;
          Eb        G#    C#sus2
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall?
                 G#  
But watching you stand alone,
          Fm7
All of my doubt
         Eb    G#maj    Bbm7
Suddenly goes away, somehow…

 Bbm7  Bbm7sus2 Fm Eb
   One step closer.

Chorus:
     G#                    G#add9  G#sus2  
     I have died every day waiting for you.
     Fm7
     Darling, don’t be afraid -
            Eb
     I have loved you
           C#add9
     For a thousand years,
                             G#sus4   G#   Eb
     And I’ll love you for a thousand more.

Instrumental: C#add9 Eb | C#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…
          
   Bbm7 Eb  Fm Fm7 Eb
   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.
