[D] We were both young when I first saw you
I [G] close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standin’ [Bm] there
On a balcony in [G] summer air

[D] See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
[G] See you make your way through the crowd
And say, [Bm] “Hello”
Little did [A] I know

That [G] you were Romeo, you were [A] throwin’ pebbles
And my [Bm] daddy said, “Stay away from [D] Juliet”
And I was [G] cryin’ on the staircase
[A] Beggin’ you, “Please don’t [Bm] go,” [G] and [A] 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] It’s a love story, [A] baby, just say, “Yes” [D]

So [D] I sneak out to the garden to see you
[G] We keep quiet, ’cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your [Bm] eyes
Escape this town for a little [A] while, oh oh

‘Cause [G] you were Romeo, I was a [A] scarlet letter
And my [Bm] daddy said, “Stay away from [D] Juliet”
But you were [G] everything to me
I was [A] beggin’ you, “Please don’t [Bm] go,” [G] and [A] 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] It’s a love story, [A] baby, just say, “Yes”

[D] Romeo, save me, they’re tryna 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] It’s a love story, [A] baby, just say, “Yes”

Solo: [D] [A] [Bm] [G] [A]

I got tired of [Bm] waiting [G]
Wonderin’ if [D] you were ever comin’ [A] around
My faith in you [Bm] was fading [G]
When I [D] met you on the outskirts of [A] town, and I said

[D] Romeo, save me, I’ve been feeling so alone
[A] I keep waiting for you, but you never come
Is [Bm] this in my head? I don’t know what to think
He [G] knelt to the ground and [A] 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
I [C#m] talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
[A] It’s a love story, [B] baby, just say, [E] ‘Yes’”

Oh, [B] oh, oh
[C#m] Oh, oh, oh, oh
‘Cause [A] we were both young when I first saw [E] you
