[Intro]
A E F#m D
[Verse]
A
We were both young when i first saw you
D
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
F#m E
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
F#m
You say hello
E
Little did I know
[Pre-chorus]
D E
That you were romeo you were throwing pebbles
F#m A
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
D
And i was crying on the staircase
E F#m A
Begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus]
A
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
E
I'll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
F#m
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
D E 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
F#m
So close your eyes
E
Let’s keep this down for a little while
[Pre-chorus]
D E
Cause you were Romeo I was a scarlet letter
F#m A
and my daddy said stay away from Juliet
D
But you were everything to me
E F#m A
and I was begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus]

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
E
I'll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
F#m
You be the prince and I'll be the princess
D E
It’s a love story baby just say yes
[Chorus]
A
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
E
This love is difficult, but it’s real
F#m
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
D E
It’s a love story baby just say yes,
[Solo]
A E F#m D
[Bridge]
F#m D
I got tired of waiting,
A E
wondering if you were ever coming around
F#m D
My faith in you was fading
A E
Then I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
[Chorus]
A
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
E
I keep waiting for you but you never come
F#m
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]
