Long Live/New Year's Da (Live)

[Intro]
C F Am G F
 
 
[Verse 1]
                    C                        F
I say remember this moment In the back of my mind
                            Am
The time we stood with our shaking hands
     G                      F
The crowds in stands went wild
                          C
We were the kings and the queens
                      F
And they read off our names
                              Am
The night you danced like you knew our lives
       G             F
Would never be the same
                           Am                      F
You held your head like a hero On a history book page
                     Am    G                     F
It was the end of a decade But the start of an age
 
 
[Chorus]
       C                          F
Long live the walls we crashed through
                         Am                   G
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
                        C                      F
I was screaming, "long live all the magic we made"
                         Am                 G
And bring on all the pretenders I'm not afraid
      C                           F
Long live all the mountains we moved
                      Am
I had the time of my life
                       G
Fighting dragons with you
                        C                     F
I was screaming, "long live the look on your face"
                       Am
And bring on all the pretenders
     F                C
One day we will be remembered
 
 
[Bridge]
F            Am
Hold on to spinning around
    F     Am
Confetti falls to the ground
          F
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]
C  Am  F  G
C  Am  F  G
 
C      Am    F             G
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
 
 
[Verse 3]
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 forevermore
 
 
[Chorus 3]
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]

 Hold on  to the memories, they will hold on to you

Long live
F        G                  C      Am
   The walls we crashed through
F            G             C    Am     F     G
   I had the time of my life
 C         Am  F   G
With you
 
          C    Am   F
Long live
                             C  Am   F
The walls we crashed through
                         C   Am   F
I had the time of my life
         C  Am  F
With you
