Dm
Hey, once upon a younger year

When all our shadows disappeared
     C                         Dm
The animals inside came out to play

Hey, When face to face with all our fears

Learned our lessons through the tears
   C                               Dm
Make memories we knew would never fade

           Bb
One day my father he told me
            F
Son, don't let this slip away
    C                               Dm
He took me in his arms, I heard him say

                Bb
When you get older
                     F
Your wild heart will live for younger days
  C
Think of me if ever you're afraid

He said, one day you'll leave this world behind
            C                Dm
So live a life you will remember

 Dm
When thunder clouds start pouring down

Light a fire they can't put out
 C                                  Dm
Carve your name into those shining stars

He said go venture far beyond these shores

Don't forsake this life of yours
C                                        Dm
I'll guide you home no matter where you are
