Intro:  G  Cadd9 Em D  Cadd9 
                      G 
I say remember this moment
               Cadd9 
In the back of my mind
                            Em
The time we stood with our shaking hands
      D                    Cadd9 
The crowds in stands went wild
                           G 
We were the kings and the queens
                       Cadd9 
And they read off our names
                           Em
The night you danced like you knew our lives
        D           Cadd9 
Would never be the same
                           Em
You held your head like a hero
                   Cadd9 
On a history book page
                      Em
It was the end of a decade
D                    Cadd9
But the start of an age

      G                          Cadd9 
Long live the walls we crashed through
                  Em                         D 
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                        G                     Cadd9 
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
                       Em
And bring on all the pretenders
     Cadd9                 G 
One day we will be remembered

                      G 
I say remember this feeling
               Cadd9 
I pass the pictures around
                            Em
Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines
      D                    Cadd9 
Wishing for right now
                           G 
We are the kings and the queens
                       Cadd9 
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
                           Em
When they gave us our trophies
        D           Cadd9
We held them up for our town
                           Em
And the cynics were outraged
                   Cadd9 
Screaming, this is so absurd
                      Em
Cause for a moment a band of thieves 
D                               Cadd9
with ripped up jeans got to rule the world

      G                          Cadd9
Long live the walls we crashed through
                  Em                          D 
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                        G                     Cadd9 
I was screaming, "long live all the magic we made"
                      Em
And bring on all the pretenders
     Cadd9       G
I’m not afraid
      G                          Cadd9 
Long live all the mountains we moved
                  Em                          D 
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
                        G                     Cadd9 
I was screaming, "long live the look on your face”
                       Em
And bring on all the pretenders
     Cadd9                 G 
One day we will be remembered


Cadd9             Em
Hold on to spinning around
          Cadd9    Em
Confetti falls to the ground
           Cadd9             G 
May these memories break our fall

And you take a moment
            Cadd9
Promise me this:
                         Em
That you'll stand by me forever
        G                          Cadd9 
But if God forbid fate should step in
                      G 
And force us into a goodbye
                       Cadd9 
If you have children someday
                         Em
When they point to the pictures
D                    Cadd9 
Please tell them my name

Tell them how the crowds went wild
                 Em         D 
Tell them how I hope they shine


      G                          Cadd9
Long live the walls we crashed through
                  Em                          D 
I had the time of my life with you!

      G                          Cadd9
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
                  Em                          D 
All the candlelight shined just for me and you
                        G                     Cadd9 
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
                       Em
And bring on all the pretenders
     Cadd9       G
I’m not afraid
      G                          Cadd9 
Singing long live all the mountains we moved
                  Em                          D 
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
                        G               Cadd9 
And long, long live the look on your face
                       Em
And bring on all the pretenders
     Cadd9                 G 
One day we will be remembered.
