Intro: D9  A  Bm  G

D9
We were both young when I first saw you 
G
I close my eyes and the flashback starts 
          Bm                        G
I'm standing there on a balcony of summer air. 


D9
See the lights, See the party, the ball gowns. 
     G
See you make your way through the crowd 
          Bm
And say hello; 
              A
Little did I know 


           G                       A
That you were Romeo; you were throwing pebbles, 
          Bm                         D
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet." 
            G
And I was crying on the staircase 
  A                        Bm          A
Begging you, 'Please don't go.' And I said 


  D
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone. 
 A
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run. 
 Bm
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess 
 G                  A                 D
It's a love story - baby just say yes 


 D9
So I sneak out to the garden to see you. 
 G
We keep quite 'cause we're dead if they know. 
 Bm
So close your eyes; 
            A
Escape this town for a little while. 
            G                    A
Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter, 
         Bm                         D
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet," 


         G
But you were everything to me; 
       A                        Bm             A
I was begging you, Please, don't go. And I said, 


 D
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone. 
 A
I'll be waiting; all there's left to do is run. 
 Bm
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess 
 G                 A                 D
It's a love story baby just say yes 


  D
Romeo save me, they're tryin' to tell me how to feel. 
  A
This love is difficult, but it's real. 
  Bm
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
 G                  A 
It's a love story - baby just say yes, oh

D  A  Bm  G

                 Bm     G               D              A
I got tired of waiting,   Wondering if you were ever comin' around. 
             Bm        G
My faith in you was fading
                         D           A
When i met you on the outskirts of town. And I said, 
  D
Romeo save me - I've been feeling so alone. 
   A
I keep waiting for you but you never come. 
    Bm
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think 
    G                        A
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said,
  E
Marry me, Juliet. You'll never have to be alone. 
   B
I love you and that's all I really know. 
   C#m
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress;
 A                   B             E
It's a love story - baby just say 'Yes'. 
E   B   C#m
Oh, oh, yes 
         A                           E
We were both young when i first saw you
