Verse 1:
  Em
Hey, once upon a younger year
      Em
When all our shadows disappeared
      D                         Em
The animals inside came out to play
  Em
Hey, when face to face with all our fears
 Em
Learned our lessons through the tears
       D
Made memories we knew would never fade
             C
One day my father—he told me,

Pre-Chorus:
           G
"Son, don't let it slip away"
    D                                Em
He took me in his arms, I heard him say,
               C
"When you get older
                     G
Your wild life will live for younger days
 D                           D*
Think of me if ever you're afraid."

Chorus:
           C                               G
He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
           D               Em
So live a life you will remember."
           C
My father told me when I was just a child
              D
These are the nights that never die

My father told me

Instrumental:
C  G  D  Em (x2)

Verse 2:
      Em
When thunder clouds start pouring down
  Em
Light a fire they can't put out
       D                        Em
Carve your name into those shinning stars
    Em
He said, "Go venture far beyond the shores.
  Em
Don't forsake this life of yours.
      D
I'll guide you home no matter where you are."
            C
One day my father—he told me,

Pre-Chorus:
             G
"Son, don't let it slip away."
       D                          Em
When I was just a kid I heard him say,
               C
"When you get older
                     G
Your wild life will live for younger days
  D                          D*
Think of me if ever you're afraid."

Chorus:
              C*                           G*
He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
           D*              Em*
So live a life you will remember."
           C*                         G*
My father told me when I was just a child
               D*              Em*
These are the nights that never die

My father told me
