Capo 1st fret
[Verse 1]
A Heartbeats fast F#m Colours and promises D How to be brave EA How can I love when I'm afraid to fall F#m But watching you stand alone DEBm All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow DE One step closer
[Chorus]
A I have died everyday waiting for you F#m Darling don't be afraid I have loved you D For a thousand years EA (pause) I love you for a thousand more
[Verse 2]
A Time stands still F#m Beauty in all she is D I will be brave EA I will not let in if it takes away F#m What's standing in front of me D Every breath EBm Every hour has come to this DE One step closer
[Chorus]
A I have died everyday waiting for you F#m Darling don't be afraid I have loved you D For a thousand years E I love you for a thousand more A And all along I believed I would find you F#m Time has brought your heart to me I have loved you D For a thousand years E I love you for a thousand more

A I have died everyday waiting for you F#m Darling don't be afraid I have loved you D For a thousand years E I love you for a thousand more A And all along I believed I would find you F#m Time has brought your heart to me I have loved you D For a thousand years E I love you for a thousand more
