Capo 2

[Verse]

Once upon a yo

unger year
     
When all our s

hadows disappe

ared
             
The animals in

              
side came out 

   
to play
     
Went face to f

ace with all o

ur fears

Learned our le

ssons through 

the tears
             
Made memories 

              
we knew would 

      
never fade

[Pre-chorus]
           
One day my fat

her, he told m

e
            
"Son, don't le

t it slip away

"
             
He took me in 

              
his arms, I he

        
ard him say,
              
"When you get 


older
              
Your wild hear

       
t will live fo

r younger days
             
Think of me if

              
 ever you're a


fraid."

[Chorus] (single strum)
              
He said, "One 

             
day you'll lea

              
ve this world 

  
behind
             
So live a life

mber."
             
My father told

[Verse]
