Am            
Hey, once upon a   younger year
                                 
When all our shadows disappeared 
    G                     Am           
The  animals inside came    out to play
                   Am                       
 Hey, when face to   face with all our fears
                                     
Learned our lessons through the tears
      G                 Am                
 Made  memories we know   would never fade
         F                    
One day   my father he told me
                C              
 Son, don't let  this slip away
   G                       Am             
He  took me in his arma, I   heard him say
             F     
When you get  older
                              C            
Your wild heart will live for  younger days
       C/G                     G      
 Think    of me if ever you're  afraid
         F                     C                 
He said,  one day you'll leave  this world behind
            G               Am        
 So live a   life you will    remember
           F                   C            
 My father  told me when I was  just a child
       G               Am              
 These  are the nights   that never die
                 
My father told me
             Am                         
When thunder   clouds start pouring down
                                
Light a fire they can't put out 
       G                     Am             
 Carve  your name into those   shining stars
                       Am                   
He said go venture far   beyond these shores
                                
Don't forsake this life of yours
                G               Am             
 I'll guide you  home no matter   where you are
            F                 
 One day my  father he told me
                         C    
Son, don't let this slip  away
      G                    Am             
 When  I was just a kid, I   heard him say
          F         
 When you  get older
         F                     C                 
He said,  one day you'll leave  this world behind
            G               Am        
 So live a   life you will    remember
           F                   C            
 My father  told me when I was  just a child
       G               Am              
 These  are the nights   that never die
                 
My father told me
