[Intro]
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4 x2
 
[Verse 1]
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4I was a kid looking for love, full of hope inside
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4But time was never kind to me, my heart grew cold as ice
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4All out of luck, thought I was stuck, alone for all my life
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4But I was proven wrong the moment I looked in your eyes
 
[Pre-Chorus]
BmIt's true, until I'm in the grave
CDarling, I'll love you
 
[Chorus]
N.C. Bmaj9
For a thousand years, dear
Bm G Gadd4Time is nothing when I'm here with you, oh-oh-ooh
N.C. Bmaj9 Bm G GAll my fears, tears, those memories, they disappear with you, oh-oh-ooh
Bmaj9 Bm G'Til I turn into dust, I'll carry this love, my dear
Gadd4 (Bm)For a thousand years
 
[Interlude]
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4 x2
 
[Verse 2]
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4Saw very soon, something will bloom, like a lotus flower
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4The bluest moon will soon be sun and turn to golden hour
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4Hours and days, lost in your gaze, losing track of time
Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4Learning how to slow it down, appreciate our lives
 
[Pre-Chorus: JVKE & John Michael Howell]
BmJust know, until I'm in the grave
CDarling, I'll love you
 
[Chorus]
N.C. Bmaj9
For a thousand years, dear
Bm G Gadd4Time is nothing when I'm here with you, oh-oh-ooh
Bmaj9 Bm G Gadd4All my fears, tears, those memories, they disappear with you, oh-oh-ooh
Bmaj9 Bm G'Til I turn into dust, I'll carry this love, my dear
Gadd4 Bm Bmaj9 Gadd4For a thousand years (Oh-ooh, ay)
 
[Bridge]
Bmaj9 Bm9Set it all on fire, let it burn up brighter
Gadd9 Gadd4Love is a flame, and it's dancing away, to David playing on a lyre
Bmaj9 Bm9Set it all on fire, let the smoke Go higher
Gadd4'Cause darling, I'll love you
 
[Chorus]
N.C. Bmaj9
For a thousand years, dear
Bm G Gadd4Time is nothing when I'm here with you, oh-oh-ooh
Bmaj9 Bm G Gadd4All my fears, tears, those memories, they disappear with you, oh-oh-ooh
N.C. Bmaj9 Bm G Gadd4'Til the air leaves my lungs, with each breath, I'll hold you near
Bmaj9 Bm G'Til I turn into dust, I'll carry this love, my dear
Gadd4 N.C.
For a thousand years
