Two thousand years
C     Dmaj7  Asus4 Dmaj7
Two thousand years

Two thousand years
Two thousand years
(Have I waited)

                 Asus4    Dmaj7
To ask if I have loved you
C         Dmaj7   Asus4     Dmaj7
To know if I have served you

To find if I've obeyed you
To know if I've betrayed you

Chorus

Then find I can't be perfect
Not even a perfect snake
To know that we are hated
You suffer for my sake

Chorus

C         Dma7/B F6  C           Dmaj7/B Dmaj7/B
And so I have  the chance to love
C     F6 Dma7/B C Dmaj7/B
As you intended
C           F6        C        F
You really lived and die for me
C                F    C
Is the waiting really ended?

Two thousand years
Long, long years
Long, long, long, long years

(Have I waited)
Two thousand long, long years
