------------------------------------------------------------------------------- D We were both young when I first saw you F#m I close my eyes And the flashback starts Bm I’m standing there G A On a balcony of summer air D See the lights See the party the ball gowns F#m Bm See you make your way through the crowd say hello G A Little did I know D A That you were romeo you were throwing pebbles Bm G And my daddy said stay away from juliet D And I was crying on the staircase A Bm G 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 It’s a love story baby just say yes D So I sneak out to the garden to see you A We keep quite ’cause we’re dead if they knew Bm So close your eyes G A Let’s keep this down for a little while D A ’cause you were romeo I was a scarlet letter Bm G And my daddy said stay away from juliet D But you were everything to me A Bm G And 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 I’ll be the princess G A It’s a love story baby just say yes D Romeo save me, then(*they?) try 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 dizziness(*) G A D It’s a love story baby just say yes, oh, Bm G I got time to waiting D A Wondering if you were ever coming around Bm G My faith in you was fading D A When I met you on the outskirts to 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’s down(*) 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 you’ll pick out a white dress A B It’s a love story baby just say yes Oh ... A B E ’cause we were both young when I first saw you
