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

Em
You be the prince and I'll be the princess
C D
It’s a love story baby just say yes
[Chorus]
G
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
D
This love is difficult, but it’s real
Em
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
C D
It’s a love story baby just say yes,
[Solo]
G D Em C
[Bridge]
Em C
I got tired of waiting,
G D
wondering if you were ever coming around
Em C
My faith in you was fading
G D
Then I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
[Chorus]
G
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
D
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Em
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think
C D
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
[Chorus 2 - Key change]
