Intro
[A#] [Db] [Bb] [Em]
===

Verse 1
[A#]We were both young when I first saw you
I [Em]close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing [Bb]there on a balcony in [Em]summer air
[Em]See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
[Em]See you make your way through the crowd
And say, [Bb]"Hello"
Little did [Db]I know

Pre-Chorus
That [Em]you were Romeo, you were [Db]throwing pebbles
And my [Bb]daddy said, "Stay away from [A#]Juliet"
And I was [Em]crying on the staircase
[Db]Begging you please don't [Bb]go, [Em]and I [Db]said

Chorus
[A#]Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
[Db]I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
[Bb]You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
[Em]It's a love story [Db]baby just say [A#]"yes"

Verse 2
So [A#]I sneak out to the garden to see you
[Em]We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your [Bb]eyes
Escape this town for a [Db]little while

Pre-Chorus
'Cause [Em]you were Romeo, I was a [Db]scarlet letter
And my [Bb]daddy said stay away from [A#]Juliet
But you were [Em]everything to me I was
[Db]Begging you please don't [Bb]go, [Em]and [Db]I said

Chorus
[A#]Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
[Db]I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
[Bb]You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
[Em]It's a love story [Db]baby just say yes
[A#]Romeo, save me, they try to tell me how to feel
[Db]This love is difficult, but it's real,
[Bb]Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
[Em]It's a love story [Db]baby just say yes, oh

Solo
[A#] [Db] [Bb] [Em] [Db]

Bridge
I got tired of [Bb]waiting, [Em] wondering if [A#]you were ever coming [Db]around
My faith in you was [Bb][Em]fading
When I [A#]met you on the outskirts of [Db]town and I said

Chorus
[A#]Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
[Db]I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is [Bb]this in my head, I don't know what to think
He [Em]knelt to the ground and [Db]pulled out a ring and said
[Cb]Marry me, Juliet you'll never have to be alone
[Bbm]I love you, and that's all I really know
I [A#m]talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
[Db]It's a love story [Bbm]baby just say [Cb]yes

Outro
[Cb]Uh [Bbm]oh, uh [A#m]oh
[Db]We were both young when [Bbm]I first saw [Cb]you⠀⠀
