That [F]you were Romeo, you were [G]throwing pebbles. And my [Am]daddy said, “Stay away from [C]Juliet.” 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.”

[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 town for a [G]little while.

‘Cause [F]you were Romeo, I was a [G]scarlet letter. And my [Am]daddy said stay away from [C]Juliet. But you were [F]everything to me I was. [G]Begging you please don’t [Am]go, [F]and [G]I said.

[C] [G] [Am] [F] [G] I got tired of [Am]waiting, [F]wondering If [C]you were ever coming [G]around. My faith in you was [Am] [F]fading. When I [C]met you on the outskirts of [G]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. He [F]knelt to the ground and [G]pulled out a ring and said.
