Long Live

	 
[Intro]
G  Cadd9 Em D  Cadd9
[Strophe]
                      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
[Refrain]
      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
[Strophe]
                      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
[Refrain]
      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
[Pont]
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
[Refrain]
      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.
