[Intro]
F# C# D#m B
[Verse]
F#
We were both young when i first saw you
B
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
D#m C#
I’m standing there on a balcony of summer air
[Verse]
F#
See the lights, see the party the ball gowns
B
I see you make your way through the crowd
D#m
You say hello
C#
Little did I know
[Pre-chorus]
B C#
That you were romeo you were throwing pebbles
D#m F#
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
B
And i was crying on the staircase
C# D#m F#
Begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus]
F#
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
C#
I'll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
D#m
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
B C# F#
It’s a love story baby just say yes
[Verse]
F#
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
B
We keep quite because we're dead if they know
D#m
So close your eyes
C#
Let’s keep this down for a little while
[Pre-chorus]
B C#
Cause you were Romeo I was a scarlet letter
D#m F#
and my daddy said stay away from Juliet
B
But you were everything to me
C# D#m F#
and I was begging you please don't go, and I said
[Chorus]
F#
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
C#
I'll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
D#m
You be the prince and I'll be the princess
B C#
It’s a love story baby just say yes
[Chorus]
F#
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
C#
This love is difficult, but it’s real
D#m
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
B C#
It’s a love story baby just say yes,
[Solo]
F# C# D#m B
[Bridge]
D#m B
I got tired of waiting,
F# C#
wondering if you were ever coming around
D#m B
My faith in you was fading
F# C#
Then I met you on the outskirts of town and I said
[Chorus]
F#
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
C#
I keep waiting for you but you never come
D#m
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think
B C#
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
[Chorus 2 - Key change]
G#
Marry me Juliet you'll never have to be alone
D#
I love you and that’s all I really know
