Two Thousand Years Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 In the begiFnning

 there was the coA♯ld and the niCght

 Prophets and angGmels

 gave us the fCire and the liFght

 Man was triuDmmphant

  A dim A♯ B dim

Armed with the faith and the will

 That even the darA♯kest agFes couldn't kCill

 Too many kinFgdoms

 Too many fA♯lags on the fiCeld

 So many batGmtles

 So many woCunds to be heaFled

 Time is releDmntless

 Only true Adimlove persA♯everBdimes

 It's been a lFong time and nA♯ow I'm with yDmou

 After tCwo thousand yeFars

 This is our moFment

 Here at the crosA♯sroads of tCime

 We hope our chiGmldren

 Carry our drCeams down the lFine

 they are the vinDmtage

  A dim A♯ Bdim

What kind of life will they live?

 Is this a cuA♯rse or a bleFssing that we gCive?

 Sometimes I woFnder

 Why are we A♯so blind to CFate?

 Without compGmassion

 there can be Cno end to Fhate

 No end to soDmrrow

 caused by the Adimsame endless A♯fearBdims

 Why can’t we lA♯earn from Fall we’ve been Dmthrough

 after two Cthousand years? F

 There will be mirFacles

 after the lA♯ast war is wCon

 Science and pGmoetry

 Rule in the Cnew world to Fcome

 Prophets and anDmgels

  dim A♯ Bdim

gave us the power to see

 what an amaA♯zing Ffuture there will Cbe

 And in the eveFning

 after the fA♯ire and the lCight

 One thing is cerGmtain

 nothing can Chold back the Fnight

 Time is releDmntless

 and as the Adimpast diA♯sappBdimears

 We’re on the Fverge of A♯all things Dmnew

 We are Ctwo thouA♯sand yeFars

Outro

F A♯ C F

Notes: I find that the F and Bb in the second-to-last line of each stanza is

I placed them where I thought they sounded best, but they are subjective. Also, at the

of

stanza, Joel goes up the bass from F to Bb (starting at F to G etc.) and when the bass

to Bb the chord changes. That’s easier to understand on piano
