Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

These are the chords played during that awesome intro riff. Each letter represents

a beat. If you don't get what I mean just try playing along with the song.

Also, if you are playing this acoustically (1 guitar) you can hum the lead riff over the chords.

Verse

You need a friend when youre a runaway

You can tell tales on your pioneer walk

Mamas friend was an older man

Once a gentleman on his Mayberry Yacht

Instrumental

Verse

He saw his friends where he saw his bends

He saw his heart as the bottom pea of the pod

He met a girl, he got a leather vest

Skipped town babe, goodbye my Mayberry Yacht

Pre-chorus

Shes a dream girl behind the scenes

Shes the one that can feel me

Shes the one behind the sun shining on

Chorus

Well it will last one thousand years

It will last one thousand years

Enough time to break hearts, an empire to fall

But one thousand years aint enough to tear down your wall

Instrumental

Verse

Just a ghost and never went home

Gave a damn but not about the Mayberry Yacht

You look back to me with the gold in the sun

Your diamonds for stars girl my girl is enough is enough

Pre-chorus

Shes a dream girl behind the scenes

Shes the one that can feel me

Shes the one behind the sun shining on

Chorus

Well it will last one thousand years

It will last one thousand years

Enough time to break hearts, an empire to fall

But one thousand years, one thousand years!

Well it will last one thousand years

It will last one thousand years

Enough time to break hearts, an empire to fall

But one thousand years aint enough to tear down your wall
