G   Am   Em   C
 
[Verse 1]
G
Girl our mama's are best friends and so are we
            Am
The whole town was rooting for us like the home team
Em                                                   C
Most likely to settle down, plant a few roots real deep and let ‘em grow
 
G
We can’t stop this real world from spinning us
Am
Your bright lights called, I don’t blame you for picking up
Em                                             C
Your big dream bags are all packed up and ready to go
 
But I just need you to know
 
 
[Chorus]
                G
That I love you more than a California sunset
                Am
More than a beer when you ain’t 21 yet
                Em                                             C
More than a Sunday morning Lord turnin' some poor lost souls 'round, Hallelujah bound
 
           G
Yeah, I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits the hook
          Am
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
           Em                                     C
But baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down
                                          G
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
I ain’t the runaway kind, I can’t change that
Am
My heart’s stuck in these streets like the train tracks
Em
City sky ain’t the same black
               C
Ain't that a map dot shame, man, to think that
 
 
[Chorus]
                G
I love you more than a California sunset
                Am
More than a beer when you ain’t 21 yet
                Em                                             C
More than a Sunday morning Lord turning some poor lost souls 'round, Hallelujah bound
 
                        G
I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits a hook
          Am
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
            Em                                   C
But baby, this might be the last time I get to lay you down
                                          G
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
 
 
[Verse 3]
           G
Yeah, You got a wild in your eyes that I just wasn’t born with
          Am
I’m a same gas station cup of coffee in the mornin'
          Em                                                    C
I need a house on the hill, girl, not in ‘em so hang onto these words
 
till them avenues help you forget ‘em
 
 
[Chorus]
                 G
Cause I love you more than a California sunset
                Am
I love you more in a twenty dollar sun dress
                Em
Hate that loaded down car you got your keys in, girl
        C
But I hate even more that you’re leaving
 
                  G
Cause I love you more than a feeling when a bass hits a hook
           Am
When the guy gets the girl at the end of the book
          Em                                           C
But that ain’t you and me so I guess I’ll just see you around
                                        G
Cause I can’t love you more than my hometown
 
                      Am
Love you more than my hometown
                      Em
Love you more than my hometown
                      C
Love you more, baby, love you more

Playing Notes-

1. Just one bass guitar (looped) and one rhythm guitar. As with many classics,
   this song is very easy to play. Just get the rhythm down and you are set.

2. I am omitting lyrics since the whole song is based on this simple arrangement.

3. Official song history- http://www.koolandthegang.com/history/history_1972.html

VERSE I
Dm            Bb                        F   
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
                C 
You were always crazy like that
Dm                Bb 
I watched from my window,
                  F                C     
always felt I was outside looking in on you
          Dm 
You were always the mysterious one 
     Bb
with dark eyes and careless hair, 
          F                             C
You were fashionably sensitive, but too cool to care 
         Dm          Bb                       F
Then you stood in my doorway, with nothing to say 
             C
besides some comment on the weather

BRIDGE-

Gm
Well in case you failed to notice, 
    Bb
In case you failed to see, 
F   
This is my heart bleeding before you, 
C
This is me down on my knees

CHORUS-
Bb             C        F   C      Bb 
These foolish games are tearing me apart
Bb                 C         F     C      Bb 
You're thoughtless words are breaking my heart
                Dm 
You're breaking my heart

VERSE II
                Dm               Bb
You were always brilliant in the morning
             F           C
Smoking your cigarettes, talking over coffee 
          Dm                       Bb
You philosophies on art, Baroque moved you, 
                            F 
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
      C
As I clumsily strummed my guitar 
Dm
You'd teach me of honest things 
Bb
Things that were daring, things that were clean 
F                                 C
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean 
      Dm                           Bb
So I hid my soiled hands behind my back 
F                                    C
Somewhere along the line I must've gone off track with you

BRIDGE-
Gm                                     Bb
Excuse me, think I've mistaken you for somebody else 
F
Somebody who gave a damn, 
C
Somebody more like myself

REPEAT CHORUS.

D ‚Äì Bb ‚Äì F ‚Äì C

D             Bb                        F
You took your coat off and stood in the rain, 
                            C
you were always crazy like that‚Ä¶

Cadd9             G6

Cadd9                     G6
I break the yolks, make a smiley face
C                     Em
I kinda like it in my brand new place
         Cadd9                                   G6
Wipe the spots off of the mirror don't leave the keys in the door
C                            D
I never put my towels on the floor anymore 'cause

CHORUS-
C           D
Dreams last so long
G    D/F          Em
Even after you're gone
C           D
I know that you love me
G        D/F      Em
And soon you will see

You were meant for me

Cadd9                      G6
I called my momma, she was out for a walk
C                            Em
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk so I
Cadd9                     G6
Picked up a paper, it was more bad news
C                           D
More hearts being broken or people being used
Cadd9                 G6
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
C                     Em
I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
       Cadd9           G6
'Cause it was happy oh I was sad and
C                   D
It made me miss you oh so bad

CHORUS

BRIDGE
C                         D
Go about my business, I'm doing fine
         G               D/F            Em
Besides, what I say if I had you on the line
C                   D
Same old story, not much to say
Em
Hearts are broken every day

Cadd9 G6 C Em (2x)

Cadd9                        G6
I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
C                         Em
I know you hate it when I leave the light on
  Cadd9            G6
I pick a book up.  Turn the sheets down.
C                        D
Take a deep breath and a good look around
Cadd9           G6
Put on pj's and hop into bed
    C                     Em
I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
Cadd9                       G6
I try and tell myself it'll be all right
C                         D
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight

A Thousand Years
Christina Perri

(Video)

C
Heart beats fast
           G
Colors and promises
          Em
How to be brave
          D             C
How can I love when I'm afraid

To fall
                 G
But watching you stand alone
          Em
All of my doubt
         D         C
Suddenly goes away somehow
         Em    D
One step closer
G
I have died everyday

waiting for you
Em
Darlin' don't be afraid
