The Nights Acordes

Capo 2
* = one strum
 
[Verse 1]
C#m
Once upon a younger year
     C#m
When all our shadows disappeared
    B                          C#m
The animals inside came out to play
     C#m
Went face to face with all our fears
C#m
Learned our lessons through the tears
     B                            C#m
Made memories we knew would never fade
 
[Pre-chorus]
           A
One day my father, he told me
            E
"Son, don't let it slip away"
   B                                C#m
He took me in his arms, I heard him say,
              A
"When you get older
                     E
Your wild heart will live for younger days
B                           B*
Think of me if ever you're afraid."
 
[Chorus] (single strum)
              A                             E
He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
          B               C#m
So live a life you will remember."
          A                         E
My father told me when I was just a child
              B                 C#m
These are the nights that never die
 
My father told me

[Verse 2]
     C#m
When thunderclouds start pouring down
C#m
Light a fire they can't put out
B                                  C#m
Carve your name into those shining stars
             C#m
He said, "Go venture far beyond the shores.
C#m
Don't forsake this life of yours.
     B                                  C#m
I'll guide you home no matter where you are."
 
[Pre-chorus]
           A
One day my father, he told me
            E
"Son, don't let it slip away"
     B                             C#m
When I was just a kid, I heard him say,
              A
"When you get older
                     E
Your wild heart will live for younger days
B                           B*
Think of me if ever you're afraid."
 
[Chorus] (single strum)
              A                             E
He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
          B               C#m
So live a life you will remember."
          A                         E
My father told me when I was just a child
              B                 C#m*
These are the nights that never die
 
My father told me
