C
We were both young when I first saw you
F
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing
Am
there on a balcony in
F
summer air
C
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
F
See you make your way through the crowd
F
That 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
G
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
It's a love story
G
baby just say "yes"
C
So
C
I sneak out to the garden to see you
F
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
Escape this town for a
G
little while
