[Intro]
A# F Gm D#
[Verse]
A#
We were both young when i first saw you
D#
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
Gm F
I’m standing there on a balcony of summer air
[Verse]
A#
See the lights, see the party the ball gowns
D#
I see you make your way through the crowd
Gm
You say hello
F
Little did I know
[Pre-chorus]
D# F
That you were romeo you were throwing pebbles
Gm A#
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
D#
And i was crying on the staircase
F Gm A#
Begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus]
A#
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
F
I'll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
Gm
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
D# F A#
It’s a love story baby just say yes
[Verse]
A#
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
D#
We keep quite because we're dead if they know
Gm
So close your eyes
F
Let’s keep this down for a little while
[Pre-chorus]
D# F
Cause you were Romeo I was a scarlet letter
Gm A#
and my daddy said stay away from Juliet
D#
But you were everything to me
F Gm A#
and I was begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus]

[Chorus]
A#
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel

This love is difficult, but it’s real

D# F
It’s a love story baby just say yes,
[Solo]
A# F Gm D#
[Bridge]
Gm D#
I got tired of waiting,
A# F
wondering if you were ever coming around
Gm D#
My faith in you was fading
A# F
Then I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
[Chorus]
A#
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
F
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Gm
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
[Chorus 2 - Key change]
