Gsus2
Day after day
F6       D#maj7        Cm7
I feel myself slowing down
D#maj7        F
What does it mean?
    Gsus2
The air has changed
 G           D#maj7      Cm7
It's getting harder to breath
D#maj7          F
Or so it would seem

A#sus4    A#        A#  
Sail me away to a distant shore
      Gsus2
Where everything's fine

Chorus:
  Cm7 D#maj7  F
A thousand years
Cm7        D#maj7        F
Lost in the blink of an eye
        Fm7        D#  
If the sky keeps fallin'
    A#sus4 A#                 Cm7
The world  will come tumblin' down
D#maj7         F
In a thousand years

Tell me, my friend
Can you imagine a place
Free of boundaries and lies?
There's blood on the wind
And it's come all of the way
From faraway skies

Take me away to a different world,
where everything's fine

Chorus

A thousand years
One day for every life
Just keep on going, we'll find you
a home underground
In a thousand years

Sail me away to a distant shore,
where everything's fine

Chorus:
A thousand years
Lost in the blink of an eye
If the sky keeps fallin', the world
will come tumblin' down
In a thousand years

A thousand years
One day for every life
Just keep on going, we'll find you
a home underground
In a thousand years

Sail me away to a distant shore,
where everything's fine...
