5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 Hey, once upon a younger year 4 5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 When all our shadows disappeared 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -2 The animals inside came out to play 4 5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 Hey, went face to face with all our fears 5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 Learned our lessons through the tears 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 4 Made memories we knew would never fade
4 4 -3 -2 4 4 4 4, One day my father—he told me, 4, -4 5 5 5 -4 5 "Son, don't let it slip away." 4 -4 -4 -4 4 -4, 5 -4 4 -2, He took me in his arms, I heard him say,
4 4 -3 -2 4 "When you get older 4 4 4 6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 Your wild heart will live for younger days 5 5 5 4 4 4 5 -4 -4 Think of me if ever you're afraid."
(Chorus) 4 5, 6 -6 6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind 5 5 4 -4 4 -4 4 5 6 So live a life you will remember." 4 5 6 -6 -6 6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 My father told me when I was just a child 5 5 4 -4 5 6 -6 5 These are the nights that never die 4 -5 5 -4 4 My father told me
[Instrumental]
4 5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 When thunder clouds start pouring down 5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 Light a fire they can't put out -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -2 Carve your name into those shining stars 4 5 5 5 5 5 -5 5. He said, "Go venture far beyond these shores. 5 5 5 5 6 5 -4. Don't forsake this life of yours. 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 4. I'll guide you home no matter where you are."
4 4 -3 -2 4 4 4 4, One day my father—he told me, 4, -4 5 5 5 -4 5. "Son, don't let it slip away." 4 -4 4 -4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -2, When I was just a kid I heard him say,
4 4 -3 -2 4 "When you get older 4 4 4 6 -6 -7 -6 6 5 Your wild heart will live for younger days 5 5 5 4 4 4 5 -4 -4 Think of me if ever you're afraid.
(Chorus)
5 5 4 -4 5 6 -6 5 These are the nights that never die 4 -5 5 -4 4 My father told me Hey, hey |
