[Intro]
G   C   Em D Cadd9
 
[Verse 1]
                    G                        Cadd9
I say remember this moment 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                      Cadd9
You held your head like a hero on a history book page
                     Em   D                      Cadd9
It was the end of a decade but the start of an age
 
[Chorus]
      G                         Cadd9
Long live the walls we crashed through
                        Em                      D
How 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
 
[Verse 2]
                        G                            Cadd9
I said remember this feeling, I passed the pictures around
                          Em                 D
Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines
             Cadd9
Wishing for right now
                          G                                           Cadd9
We are the kings and the queens, you traded your baseball cap for a crown
                       Em              D                    Cadd9
When they gave us our trophies and we held them up for our town
                    Em                               Cadd9
And the cynics were outraged, screaming, "this is absurd!"
                       Em
'Cause for a moment a band of thieves
   D                       Cadd9
In ripped up jeans got to rule the world
 
[Chorus]
      G                         Cadd9
Long live the walls we crashed through
                        Em                      D
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                        G                      Cadd9
I was screaming, "long live all the magic we made"
                           Em                D
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not afraid
      G                         Cadd9
Long live all the mountains we moved
                      Em
I had the time of my life
                       D
Fighting dragons with you
                        G                     Cadd9
I was screaming, "long live that look on your face"
                           Em
And bring on all the pretenders
     C                   G
One day, we will be remembered
 
[Bridge]
Cadd9        Em
Hold on to spinning around
    Cadd9 Em
Confetti falls to the ground
          Cadd9
May these memories break our fall
 
[Verse 3]
                 G
Can you take a moment?
            Cadd9
Promise me this:
                           Em
That you'll stand by me forever
         D                           Cadd9
But if, God forbid, fate should step in
                     G
And force us into a goodbye
                          Cadd9
If you have children someday
                          Em    D
When they point to the pictures
                     Cadd9
Please tell them my name
                  Cadd9
Tell them how the crowds went wild
                D
Tell them how I hope they shine
 
[Chorus]
      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
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                        G                      Cadd9
I was screaming, "long live all the magic we made"
                           Em                D
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not afraid
              G                           Cadd9
Singing long live all the mountains we moved
                      Em
I had the time of my life
                       D
Fighting dragons with you
            G                      Cadd9
Long, long live that look on your face
                           Em
And bring on all the pretenders
     Cadd9    N.C.
One day ..... we will be remembered
