Lyrics

The Story of Tonight

[HAMILTON, LAURENS, LAFAYETTE & MULLIGAN]

I may not live to see our glory

I may not live to see our glory

But I will gladly join the fight

But I will gladly join the fight

And when our children tell our story

And when our children tell our story

They'll tell the story of tonight

[MULLIGAN]

Let's have another round tonight

[LAFAYETTE]

Let's have another round tonight

[HAMILTON]

Let's have another round tonight

[LAURENS]

Raise a glass to freedom

Something they can never take away

No matter what they tell you

Raise a glass to the four of us

[LAURENS & MULLIGAN]

Tomorrow, there'll be more of us

[LAURENS, MULLIGAN & LAFAYETTE]

Telling the story of tonight

[HAMILTON]

They'll tell the story of tonight

[LAURENS, MULLIGAN & LAFAYETTE]

Raise a glass to freedom

Something they can never take away

[HAMILTON]

No matter what they tell you

[MULLIGAN & LAFAYETTE]

Let's have another round tonight

[LAURENS]

Raise a glass to the four of us

[HAMILTON, LAURENS, LAFFAYETTE & MULLIGAN]

Tomorrow, there'll be more of us

[HAMILTON & LAURENS]

Telling the story of tonight

[LAFAYETTE & MULLIGAN]

Let's have another round tonight

[HAMILTON, LAURENS & ENSEMBLE 1, LAFAYETTE, MULLIGAN & ENSEMBLE 2]

They'll tell the story of tonight

Raise a glass to freedom

They'll tell the story of tonight

Raise a glass to freedom

They'll tell the story of tonight

[ENSEMBLE 2, FULL ENSEMBLE]

They'll tell the story of tonight
