[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
[Outro]
D* Em*
These are the nights that never die
My father told me
[Instrumental]
C G D Em (x2)
