(Verse 1)
I said remember this [G]moment
In the back of my mind [Cadd9]
The time we stood with our [Em]shaking hands
The [D]crowds in stands [Cadd9]went wild
We were the kings and the [G]queens
And they read off our [Cadd9]names
The night you danced like you [Em]knew
Our lives would never [D]be the same [CCadd9]
You held your head like a [Em]hero
On a history book page [Cadd9]
It was the end of a decade [D]
But the start of an age [Cadd9]
(Chorus)
Long [G]live the walls we crashed [Cadd9]through
How the kingdom lights [Em]shined just for me and [D]you
I was screaming long [G]live all the magic we [Cadd9]made
And bring on all the [Em]pretenders
One [Cadd9]day, we will be [G]remembered
(Verse 2)
I said remember this [G]feeling
I pass the pictures [Cadd9]around
Of all the years that we [Em]stood there
On the [D]side-lines wishing for right now
We are the kings and the [G]queens
You traded your baseball cap for a [Cadd9]crown
When they gave us our [Em]trophies
And we [D]held them up for our [Cadd9]town
And the cynics were [Em]outraged
Screaming, [Cadd]"This is absurd!"
'Cause for a moment a [Em]band of thieves
In ripped-up jeans got to [Cadd9]rule the world
(Chorus)
Long [G]live the walls we crashed [Cadd9]through
How the kingdom lights [Em]shined just for me and [D]you
I was screaming long [G]live all the magic we [Cadd9]made
And bring on all the [Em]pretenders
I'm not [D]afraid
Long [G]live all the mountains we [Cadd9]moved
I had the time of my [Em]life fighting dragons with [D]you
I was screaming long [G]live that look on your [Cadd9]face
And bring on all the [Em]pretenders
One [Cadd9]day, we will be [G]remembered
(Bridge)
[Cadd9]Hold on to [Em]spinning around
Confetti [Cadd9] [Em]falls to the ground
May these [Cadd9]memories break our fall
(Verse 3)
Will you take a [G]moment,
Promise me [Cadd9]this
That you'll stand by me [Em]forever
But if [D]God forbid fate should step [Cadd9]in
And force us into a [G]goodbye
If you have children some [Cadd9]day
When they point to the [Em]pictures [D]
Please tell them my [Cadd9]name
Tell them how the [Cadd9]crowds [D]went [Cadd9]wild
Tell them how I [Cadd9]hope [D]they [Cadd9]shine
(Chorus)
Long [G]live the walls we crashed [Cadd9]through
I had the time of my [Em]life, with you [D]
Long, long [G]live the walls we crashed [Cadd9]through
How the kingdom lights [Em]shined just for me and [D]you
And I was screaming long [G]live all the magic we [Cadd9]made
And bring on all the [Em]pretenders
I'm not [D]afraid
Singing, long [G]live all the mountains we [Cadd9]moved
I had the time of my [Em]life fighting dragons with [D]you
And long, long [G]live that look on your [Cadd9]face
And bring on all the [Em]pretenders
One [Cadd9]day, we will be [G]remembered
