By Christina Perri. By Christina Perri and David Hodges. Arranged by Felipe Gonçalves. This edition: audio, pdf. Pop. Score. 3 pages. Felipe Gonçalves #1048966. Published by Felipe Gonçalves (A0.1471305).This is a professionally arranged, simplified transcription and tab arrangement for 4-string bass guitar, acoustic guitar, and electric guitar — all in standard E tuning (E-A-D-G) — of the iconic and emotionally powerful pop ballad "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri, from the worldwide hit film The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 (2011). This arrangement is designed to be accessible to beginner and intermediate players, providing an accurate yet simplified version of the original composition, perfect for solo performances, covers, classroom use, and romantic settings.
This edition includes TAB notation for all instruments (bass, guitar, and 4-string acoustic guitar/violão), allowing players of different skill levels and musical backgrounds to engage with this timeless piece. The arrangement has been carefully adapted to reflect the harmonic structure and emotional nuance of the original studio recording, faithfully preserving the modulations between C# Major and A# Minor. These key centers reflect the original tone used in the official motion picture soundtrack version, capturing the cinematic beauty and romantic mood that made this track one of the most beloved love songs of the 21st century.
The song’s graceful harmonic progressions, lyrical phrasing, and slow tempo make it a perfect choice for weddings, romantic performances, Valentine’s Day concerts, tributes, music recitals, or simply for personal enjoyment. Each part is notated clearly, with TAB and rhythmic markings that make learning intuitive and rewarding, even for players with limited experience.
Ideal for music educators, students, performing musicians, and Twilight fans, this arrangement offers a musically rich experience while maintaining approachability. Guitar and bass players alike will find satisfaction in the way the instrumental voices work together to recreate the emotional intensity and melodic beauty of Christina Perri’s unforgettable ballad.
