Intro: CGAmF
1. C We were both young when I first saw you
I F close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing Am there on a F balcony in summer air
C See the lights see the party the ball gowns
I F see you make your way through the crowd
You say hel-Am lo little did I G know
Chorus:That you F were Romeo, you were throwing G pebbles
And my Am daddy said stay away from Ju-C liet
And I was F crying on the staircase
G Begging you please don’t Am go, F and I G said
C Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
G I’ll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
Am You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
F It’s a love story G baby just say C yes
2. C So I sneak out to the garden to see you
F We keep quiet cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your Am eyes escape this G town for a little while
Cause you F were Romeo I was a scarlet G letter
And my Am daddy said stay away from Ju-C liet
But you were F everything to me
I was G begging you please don’t Am go F and I G said
C Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
G I’ll be waiting all there’s left to do is run
Am You’ll be the prince I’ll be the princess
F It’s a love story G baby just say C yes
C Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel
This G love is difficult, but it’s real
Am Don’t be afraid we’ll make it out of this mess
F It’s a love story G baby just say C yes
Solo: CGAmFG
Bridge: I got tired of Am waiting
F Wondering if C you were ever G coming around
My faith in Am you was F fading
When I met you on the out-C skirts of G town and I said
C Romeo save me I’ve been feeling so alone
I G keep waiting for you but you never come
Is Am this in my head, I don’t know what to think
He F kneels to the ground and G pulled out a ring and said
Change key up 1 tone to D ——
D Marry me Juliet you’ll never have to be alone
A I love you and that’s all I really know
I Bm talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
G It’s a love story A baby just say D yes
D Oh A oh Bm oh X 2
Cause we G were both young when I first saw D you
