Capo 4
Tonality
Verse:
Bm
Once upon a younger year
Bm
When all our shadows disappeared
GABm
The animals inside came out to play
Bm
When face to face with all our fears
Bm
Learned our lessons through the tears
GABm
Made memories we knew would never fade
Pre-chorus:
G
One day my father he told me,
D
"Son, donʼt let it slip away"
ABm
He took me in his arms, I heard him say,
G
"When you get older
D
Your wild life will live for younger days
AA
Think of me if ever youʼre afraid."
Chorus:
GD
He said, "One day youʼll leave this world behind
ABm
So live a life you will remember."
GD
My father told me when I was just a child
ABm
These are the nights that never die
Verse:
Bm
When thunder clouds start pouring down
Bm
Light a fire they canʼt put out
GABm
Carve their name into those shinning stars
Bm
He said, "Go venture far beyond these shores.
Bm
Donʼt forsake this life of yours.
GABm
Iʼll guide you home no matter where you are."
Pre-chorus:
G

D

G
"When you get older
D
Your wild life will live for younger days
AA
Think of me if ever youʼre afraid."
Chorus:
GD

So live a life you will remember."

My father told me when I was just a child
