The Nights Acordes

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
 
     Em
When thunder clouds start pouring down
Em
Light a fire they can't put out
D                                  Em
Carve their name into those shining stars
         Em
He said, "Go adventure far beyond these shores.
Em
Don't forsake this life of yours.
D                                     Em
I'll guide you home no matter where you are."
