Em
Once upon a younger year
Em
When all our shadows disappeared
D Em
The animals inside came out to play
Em
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,
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."
(Pre-chorus : single strum)
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
