Verse:
A#m
Once upon a younger year
A#m
When all our shadows disappeared
F#G#A#m
The animals inside came out to play
A#m
When face to face with all our fears
A#m
Learned our lessons through the tears
F#G#A#m
Made memories we knew would never fade
Pre-chorus:
F#
One day my father he told me,
C#
"Son, donʼt let it slip away"
G#A#m
He took me in his arms, I heard him say,
F#
"When you get older
C#
Your wild life will live for younger days
G#G#
Think of me if ever youʼre afraid."
Chorus:
F#C#
He said, "One day youʼll leave this world behind
G#A#m
So live a life you will remember."
F#C#
My father told me when I was just a child
G#A#m
These are the nights that never die
Verse:
A#m
When thunder clouds start pouring down
A#m
Light a fire they canʼt put out
F#G#A#m
Carve their name into those shinning stars
A#m
He said, "Go venture far beyond these shores.
A#m
Donʼt forsake this life of yours.
F#G#A#m
Iʼll guide you home no matter where you are."
Pre-chorus:
F#
One day my father he told me,
C#
"Son, donʼt let it slip away"
G#A#m
When I was just a kid, I heard him say,
F#
"When you get older
C#
Your wild life will live for younger days
G#G#
Think of me if ever youʼre afraid."
Chorus:
F#C#
He said, "One day youʼll leave this world behind
G#A#m
So live a life you will remember."
F#C#
My father told me when I was just a child
G#A#m
These are the nights that never die
