E Abm7 Gbm7
Some may say The choice is ours
B E
Others seek advice while starin at the stars
Abm7
Others fold their hands and pray and wait
Gbm7 B
Hoping that one momentous day Their heaven will await
E Abm7
And those who hope through microscopes each day
Gbm7 B
Say they know the answer but its only theory
E Abm7 Gbm7
Was our fate set in stone
B(stop)(slide) E
A thousand years ago
Abm7 Gbm7 B E
................. A thousand years ago
Abm7 Gbm7 B E

Abm7 Gbm7 B
MMMhhh MMhhh
E Abm7 Gbm7
There exists a girl halfway round the world who looks as lost as
B
lost could be Who looks exhausted just like me
E Abm7 Gbm7 B (stop)
And she's been losing sleep over thoughts too deep to consume
As she stares at the ceiling of her room
E
And though she's trying so hard to make some sense about
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mike_pinto/a_thousand_years_ago_crd_ver_2.html ]
Abm7
Every little thing and each event that
Gbm7
Comes her way and now she's praying
B
Up into the sky where her god is waiting
E Abm7 Gbm7
But is he really there to listen to her prayers
B (play out then stop)
Or is he from a story
E
A thousand years ago
Abm7 Gbm7 B
(bridge)
A Ab
What do you believe is true
A
in a world that's filled with lies
Ab
And who do you think painted the pictures
A
that became our morning skies
Ab
Do you even think at all or are just another
F#
Materialistic fool or skeptic Who counts their
E
money just to see if they're alive
Abm7 Gbm7 B
uh huh And are you alive
I havent got the next part i'll call it the interldue since i used bridge already.
Its starts off:
E E? Then some kind of A and slide to some kind of B
I think... (good Luck)
