_ _ [Ab] a thousand years, a thousand more, [Abm] a thousand more, a thousand more, a thousand more.
A thousand times, a million times [Ab] to eternity. _ _ _
_ I believe a thousand lives, a thousand [Abm] times, a man must turn and stare weakly into a tower [Fm] of [Ab] soul. _ _
_ For just [Ebm] another thousand years, a thousand wars, [Abm] the tower's wise, the numberless [Fm] flaws in space.
I _ _ could sit [Db] above a million tears, a million breaths, [Abm] a million years, but only one [Bb] truth to face. _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ A [Ab] billion woes, a million fears, [Ebm] a [Abm] million sons to one in years of uncertainty. _ _ _
_ I could [Ebm] speak a million lies, a million songs, [Abm] a million rights, a million crimes in this [Ab] palace of time. _ _
_ There [Ebm] was a single truth, a single light, [Abm] a single thought, a single [Fm] touch of grace. _ _
_ A thorn [Db] with a single point, a single [B] flame, a [Abm] single haunted memory [Ab] of your face. _ _
_ _ [Eb] I still _ [Abm] _ _
_ _ [Ab] love you. _ _ _
[Db] _ [Ab] I [Eb] still _ _ [Abm] _
[Db] _ _ [Abm] [Fm] watch a _ _
_ _ _ [Gb] thousand times the [B] mysteries before themselves, the galaxies [Ab] in my [Fm] head. _ _
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ebm] I may be numberless, I may [B] be innocent, [F] I may know many things, I may be ignorant.
[Ebm] Or I could ride the [B] kings who conquered many [F] lands.
I will miss the world of gods and let it slip my hands.
[Ebm] I could be cannon food, [Abm]
destroyed a thousand [Fm] times, reborn as fortune's child to judge another's [Db] crimes.
Or wear this pilgrim's [B] cloak of the incarnate [Ebm] thief.
I've kept this [Ab] single faith that I have [Eb] but won't believe.
_ _ _ I still [Abm]
love _ _ [Ab] _ you. _ _
_ _ [Eb] I still _ [Abm] _
_ watch [Fm] a _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gb] thousand times the mysteries [B]
before themselves, the galaxies [Bb] in my head. _ _
_ _ _ [Abm] I ride the mysteries away themselves, eternity [Gb] still unseen _ [Bbm] to me.
