Intro: G  C9 Em7 D/F# C9


                     G                         C9
I said remember this moment, in the back of my mind
                           Em7
The time we stood with our shaking hands
    D/F#                   C9
The crowds and stands went wild
                          G
We were the Kings and the Queens
                      C9
And they read off our names
                              Em7
The night you danced like you knew our lives
      D/F#         C9
Would never be the same
                         

                          Em7
You held your head like a hero
                  C9
On a history book page
                    Em7      D/F#
It was the end of a decade
                    C9
But the start of an age


     G                         C9
Long live the walls we crashed through
                       Em7                    D/F#
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                     G                     C9
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
                            Em7
And bring on all the pretenders
    C9                G
One day we will be remembered


                     G
I said remember this feeling
                       C9
I passed the pictures around
                         Em7
Of all the years that we stood there
       D/F#                   C9
On the side-lines wishing for right now
                         G
We are the Kings and the Queens
                                    C9
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
                      Em7
When they gave us our trophies
       D/F#                 C9
And we held them up for our town
                   


                    Em7
And the cynics were outraged
                     C9
Screaming this is absurd
                     Em7
Cause for a moment a band of thieves
   D/F#                   C9
In ripped up jeans got to rule the world



     G                         C9
Long live the walls we crashed through
                       Em7                    D/F#
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                     G                     C9
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
                           Em7
And bring on all the pretenders
          D/F#
I'm not afraid
     G                         C9
Long live all the mountains we moved
                     Em7                        D/F#
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
                     G                     C9
I was screaming long live the look on your face
                           Em7
And bring on all the pretenders
    C9               G             
One day we will be remembered


 C9         Em7      D/F#
Hold on to spinning around
   C9    Em7          D/F#
Confetti falls to the ground
          C9       
May these memories break our fall
                G                  C9
Will you take a moment, promise me this
                           Em7
That you'll stand by me forever
       D/F#                         C9                             
But if god forbid, fate should step in
                     G
And force us into a goodbye
                          C9
If you have children some day
                       Em7       D/F#
When they point to the pictures
                    C9
Please tell them my name

Tell them how the crowds went wild
                  D/F#
Tell them how our hope it shined
    

     G                         C9 
Long live the walls we crashed through
                     Em7          D/F#
I had the time of my life... with you
           G                         C9
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
                       Em7                    D/F#            
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                     G                     C9
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
                           Em7
And bring on all the pretenders
         D/F#
I'm not afraid
            G                         C9
Singin long live all the mountains we moved
                     Em7                        D/F#
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
           G                      C9        
Long, long live the look on your face
                           Em7
And bring on all the pretenders
     C9                 G
One day we will be remembered
