Still Standing Together

[Intro - Fast drum count-in and guitar riff] One! Two! Three! Four! [Verse 1] At fifteen we wrote slogans on the schoolyard wall Didn’t know the meaning, didn’t care at all By twenty we were yelling at whatever came Side by side together in a reckless game [Pre-Chorus] No big plans, no perfect road Just the promise we all know [Chorus] All because we’re friends tonight Standing strong and holding tight Through the years and through the fights We’re still here and still alive All because we’re friends tonight Raise a glass and shout it loud If the whole world walks away We’ll still stand inside this crowd [Verse 2] Some moved on and some disappeared Some old faces haven’t been here for years But the ones still left by the bar tonight Know the words and know the fight [Pre-Chorus] Lines on faces, time moves on But the bond is never gone [Chorus] All because we’re friends tonight Standing strong and holding tight Through the years and through the fights We’re still here and still alive All because we’re friends tonight Raise a glass and shout it loud If the whole world walks away We’ll still stand inside this crowd [Breakdown - Half-time drums, gang chant] Hey! Hey! Hey! [Bridge] Another year behind our backs Another round, another laugh More old scars and stories told But the fire never grows cold [Final Chorus] All because we’re friends tonight Standing strong and holding tight Through the years and through the fights We’re still here and still alive All because we’re friends tonight Raise a glass and shout it loud If the whole world walks away We’ll still stand inside this crowd [Outro - Gang vocals fading] Still friends! Still loud! Still standing! [Fade Out]
