The Nights Harmonica Tabs

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
