Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
These are the chords played during that awesome intro riff. Each letter represents
a beat. If you don't get what I mean just try playing along with the song.
Also, if you are playing this acoustically (1 guitar) you can hum the lead riff over the chords.
Verse
You need a friend when youre a runaway
You can tell tales on your pioneer walk
Mamas friend was an older man
Once a gentleman on his Mayberry Yacht
Instrumental
Verse
He saw his friends where he saw his bends
He saw his heart as the bottom pea of the pod
He met a girl, he got a leather vest
Skipped town babe, goodbye my Mayberry Yacht
Pre-chorus
Shes a dream girl behind the scenes
Shes the one that can feel me
Shes the one behind the sun shining on
Chorus
Well it will last one thousand years
It will last one thousand years
Enough time to break hearts, an empire to fall
But one thousand years aint enough to tear down your wall
Instrumental
Verse
Just a ghost and never went home
Gave a damn but not about the Mayberry Yacht
You look back to me with the gold in the sun
Your diamonds for stars girl my girl is enough is enough
Pre-chorus
Shes a dream girl behind the scenes
Shes the one that can feel me
Shes the one behind the sun shining on
Chorus
Well it will last one thousand years
It will last one thousand years
Enough time to break hearts, an empire to fall
But one thousand years, one thousand years!
Well it will last one thousand years
It will last one thousand years
Enough time to break hearts, an empire to fall
But one thousand years aint enough to tear down your wall
