Intro: C  G  Am  F

C
We were both young when I first saw you 
F
I close my eyes and the flashback starts 
Am                                 F
I’m standing there on a balcony in summer air 
C
See the lights, see the party the ball gowns 
  F
I see you make your way through the crowd 
           Am
You say hello 
             G
Little did I know 
     F                       G
That you were Romeo you were throwing pebbles 
       Am                        C
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet 
          F
And I was crying on the staircase 
G                        Am         
Begging you please don't go, and I 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                 G             C
It’s a love story baby just say yes 

C
So I sneak out to the garden to see you 
F
We keep quiet because we're dead if they know 
Am
So close your eyes 
            G
Escape this town for a little while 
      F                      G
Cause you were Romeo I was a scarlet letter 
       Am                        C
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet 
         F
But you were everything to me 
            G                      Am            C
And I was begging you please don't go and I 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 be the prince I'll be the princess 
F                 G                
It’s a love story baby just say yes 
C
Romeo save me, they’re trying to tell me what to feel 
G
This love is difficult, but it’s real
Am
Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess 
F                 G             C         G     Am     F
It’s a love story baby just say yes... Oh oh...

                 Am                  C                    G
I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around 
                    Am
My faith in you was fading
                      C            G
When I met you on the outskirts of town and I said 

C
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone 
G
I keep waiting for you but you never come 
Am
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
F                          G
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said

D
Marry me Juliet you'll never have to be alone 
A
I love you and thats all I really know 
Bm
I talked to your dad go pick out a white dress
G                 A             D
It’s a love story baby just say yes 
A   Bm
Oh, oh
       G                                   D
‘Cause we were both young when I first saw you
