INTRO
C, B diminished, Am, G, F, Dm, Em
AmC
I must admit it's a balancing act
EmG
It looks dangerous, that's part of it
F
Remember, don't look down
C, B diminished
AmC
You and I standing in a crowded room
EmG
We were pressed together but we're holding on
F
Like we're all that was, That's all there was
C, B diminished, Am, G, F, Dm,
Em, FCG
In a flash of light
DmF
We were drunk, we were having a fight
CGF
I was wrong, that don't mean you were right
CG
Then you played that song
DmF
It was a thousand seconds long
CGF
It didn't end, it seemed to play on all night
DmGEm
'Cause if I remember right I fell asleep there
AmC
Rainclouds passed and darkened more
EmGF
An evening touched by waiting for the sky burst
AmC
Storms had gathered in crushing lines
EmGF
I surrendered to a way that I remembered you
That's all there was
C, B diminished, Am, G, F, Dm,
Em, FCG
If I were forced to choose
DmF
What I have, I have to lose
CGF
I need love, that don't mean I need you
CG
It started with that song
DmF
It was a thousand seconds long
CGF
It didn't end 'cause we never got through
CG
And did you think that I had planned it all along,
EmF
Hoping not to be alone?
CGF
Well I was there on the edge of the rush
CG
And did you leave because you thought that I would stay,
EmF
Stricken with a holy fright?
CGF
And it was clear as the night in the cold
DmGEm
And I won't ever know what you're afraid of
G O CHORDS

C B diminished
And when the world ends
AmGF
A thousand seconds too
C B diminished
We'll watch the time pass
AmGF
Run through the high end too
C B diminished
And then we'll wait there
AmGF
A thousand seconds too
C B diminished
That's when it all ends
AmGF
A thousand seconds too
