Thousand Years Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

*this melody played throughout verses

 A thFmousand years, a thousand more

 A thB♭sus2ousand times a million doors to etGm7sus4ernity

 I may have lived a Fm/A♭thousand lives, a thousand times

 An eB♭sus2ndless C♯turning stairway climbs To a towGm7sus4er of souls

 If it takes another thFmousand years, a thousand wars

 The toB♭sus2wers rise to numberless floors in spaGm7sus4ce

 I could shed another miFm/A♭llion tears, a million breaths

 A milB♭sus2lion nD♭ames but only one true face  Gm7sus4

 A milFmlion roads, a million fears

 A miB♭sus2llion suns, ten million years of uncerGm7sus4tainty

 I could speak a milFm/A♭lion lies, a million songs

 A milB♭sus2lion riC♯ghts, a million wrongs in this balaGm7sus4nce of time

 But if there was a siFmngle truth, a single light

 A sinB♭sus2gle thought, a singular touch of grace  Gm7sus4

 Then following this sFm/A♭ingle point, this single flame

 This B♭sus2single C♯haunted memory of your face  Gm7sus4

 I stiFmll lB♭sus2ove Gm7sus4you,

 I stFmill waB♭sus2nt yGm7sus4ou

A thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves

Like galaxies in my head

I may be numberless, I may be innocent

I may know many things, I may be ignorant

Or I could ride with kings and conquer many lands

Or win this world at cards and let it slip my hands

I could be cannon food, destroyed a thousand times

Reborn as fortune's child to judge another's crimes

Or wear this pilgrim's cloak, or be a common thief

I've kept this single faith I have but one belief

I still love you

I still want you

A thousand times these mysteries unfold themselves

Like galaxies in my head

On and on the mysteries unwind themselves

Eternities still unsaid

'Till you love me
