[Intro]
G C Em D C
[Verse 1]
G C
I say remember this moment In the back of my mind
Em
The time we stood with our shaking hands
D C
The crowds in stands went wild
G
We were the kings and the queens
C
And they read off our names
Em
The night you danced like you knew our lives
D C
Would never be the same
Em C
You held your head like a hero On a history book page
Em D C
It was the end of a decade But the start of an age
[Chorus]
G C
Long live the walls we crashed through
Em D
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
G C
I was screaming, "long live all the magic we made"
Em D
And bring on all the pretenders I'm not afraid
G C
Long live all the mountains we moved
Em
I had the time of my life
D
Fighting dragons with you
G C
I was screaming, "long live the look on your face"
Em
And bring on all the pretenders
C G
One day we will be remembered
[Bridge]
C Em
Hold on to spinning around
C Em
Confetti falls to the ground
C
May these memories break our fall
C Am F
And hold on
C Am F
To spinning around
C Am F
Confetti
C Am F
Falls to the ground
[Verse 1]
C Am F C Am F
There's glitter on the floor after the party
C Am F
Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
C Am F
Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
You and me from the night before but
[Chorus 1]
C Am F C
Don't read the last page
C Am F C
But I stay when you're lost and I'm scared and you’re turning away
Am F C
I want your midnights
C Am F C
But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year’s Day
[Verse 2]
C Am F C Am F
You squeeze my hand three times in the back of the taxi
C Am F
I can tell that it's gonna be a long road
C Am F
I'll be there if you're the toast of the town babe
Or if you strike out and you're crawling home
[Chorus 2]
C Am F C
Don't read the last page
C Am F C
But I stay when it's hard or it’s wrong or we're making mistakes
Am F C
I want your midnights
C Am F C
But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year’s Day
[Post-Chorus]
C Am F G
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
C Am F G
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
C Am F G
Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you
Am Em F G
And I will hold on to you
[Bridge]

Please don't ever become a stranger whose
C Am F G
Laugh I could recognize anywhere
C Am F G
Please don't ever become a stranger whose
C Am F G
Laugh I could recognize anywhere
