[Intro]
G C Em D Cadd9
[Verse 1]
I say remember this Gmoment in the back of my Cadd9mind
The time we stood with our sEmhaking hands
The cDrowds in stands went wiCadd9ld
We were the kings and the Gqueens
And they read off our Cadd9names
The night you danced like you Emknew our lives
Would nDever be the samCadd9e
You held your head like a hEmero on a history book paCadd9ge
It was the end of a dEmecade Dbut the start of an agCadd9e
[Chorus]
Long lGive the walls we crashed tCadd9hrough
How the kingdom lights sEmhined just for me and yoDu
I was screaming, "long lGive all the magic we maCadd9de"
And bring on all the pretenEmders
One dCadd9ay, we will be rememGbered
[Verse 2]
I said remember this feeGling, I passed the pictures aCadd9round
Of all the years that we sEmtood there on the sDidelines
Wishing for rCadd9ight now
We are the kings and the qGueens, you traded your baseball cap for a crCadd9own
When they gave us our tEmrophies and we hDeld them up for our tCadd9own
And the cynics were Emoutraged, screaming, "this is absCadd9urd!"
'Cause for a moment a bEmand of thieves
In Dripped up jeans got to rCadd9ule the world
[Chorus]
Long lGive the walls we crashed tCadd9hrough
How the kingdom lights sEmhined just for me and yoDu
I was screaming, "long lGive all the magic we maCadd9de"
And bring on all the pretenEmders, I'm not afraDid
Long lGive all the mountains we mCadd9oved
I had the time of my lEmife
Fighting dragons with yDou
I was screaming, "long lGive that look on your Cadd9face"
And bring on all the pretenEmders
One dCay, we will be rememGbered
[Bridge]
Cadd9Hold on to spEminning around
ConfCadd9etti fEmalls to the ground
May these Cadd9memories break our fall
[Verse 3]
Can you take a moGment?
Promise me tCadd9his:
That you'll stand by me forEmever
But if, GDod forbid, fate should step Cadd9in
And force us into a gGoodbye
If you have children somedCadd9ay
When they point to the picEmturesD
Please tell them my nCadd9ame
Tell them how the Cadd9crowds went wild
Tell them how I Dhope they shine
[Chorus]
Long lGive the walls we crashed tCadd9hrough
I had the time of my lEmife with yDou
Long, long lGive the walls we crashed tCadd9hrough
How the kingdom lights sEmhined just for me and yoDu
I was screaming, "long lGive all the magic we maCadd9de"
And bring on all the pretenEmders, I'm not afraDid
Singing long lGive all the mountains we movCadd9ed
I had the time of my lEmife
Fighting dragons with yDou
Long, long lGive that look on your fCadd9ace
And bring on all the pretenEmders

In ripped up jeans got to rule the world

I had the time of my life
