Intro:D A Bm GD
We were both young when I first saw you
G
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Bm G
Iʼm standing there on a balcony in summer air
D
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
G
See you make your way through the crowd
Bm A
And say, «Hello». Little did I know
Pre-Chorus: G A
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
Bm D
And my daddy said, «Stay away from Juliet»
G
And I was crying on the staircase
A Bm G A
Begging you please donʼt go, and I said
Chorus:D
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
A
Iʼll be waiting all thereʼs left to do is run
Bm
Youʼll be the prince and Iʼll be the princess
G A D
Itʼs a love story baby just say «yes»
D
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
G
We keep quiet ʼcause weʼre dead if they knew
Bm
So close your eyes
A
Escape this town for a little while
Pre-Chorus: G A
ʼCause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
Bm D
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
G
But you were everything to me I was
A Bm G A
Begging you please donʼt go, and I said
Chorus:D
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
A
Iʼll be waiting all thereʼs left to do is run
Bm
Youʼll be the prince and Iʼll be the princess
G A
Itʼs a love story baby just say yes
D
Romeo, save me, they try to tell me how to feel
A
This love is difficult, but itʼs real,
Bm
Donʼt be afraid, weʼll make it out of this mess
G A
Itʼs a love story baby just say yes, oh
Instrumental:D A Bm G ABridge: Bm G
I got tired of waiting,
D A
wondering if you were ever coming around
Bm G
My faith in you was fading
D A
When I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
D
Romeo save me Iʼve been feeling so alone
A
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Bm
Is this in my head, I donʼt know what to think
G A
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
D
Marry me, Juliet youʼll never have to be alone
A
I love you, and thatʼs all I really know
Bm
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
G A D
Itʼs a love story baby just say yes
