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 of 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 F
Begging you please don't go, and I said
C
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
G Am
Been here all along, so why can't you see?
F
You belong with me
C
Standing by and waiting at your back door
G Am
All this time how could you not know, baby
F C
You belong with me, you belong with me
C G Am F
Am
Oh I remember you drivin' to my house
F
In the middle of the night
C
I'm the one who makes you laugh
G
When you know you're about to cry
Am
And I know your favorite songs
F
And you tell me about your dreams
C
Think I know where you belong
G
Think I know it's with me
G D
I am not the kind of girl
Am
Who should be rudely barging in
C
On a white veil occasion
G D
But you are not the kind of boy
Am C
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
G D
Oops! Don't say "Yes" run away now
Am
I'll meet you when your out
C G
Of the church at the back door
D
Don't wait or say a single vow
Am
You need to hear me out
C G
They said "Speak Now"
D
And you say "Lets run away now"
Am
I'll meet you when I'm out
C G
Of my tux at the back door
D
Baby I didn't say my vows
Am
So glad you were around
C
When they said "Speak no--ow"
C Am7 Fadd9
Elevator buttons and morning air
C Am7 Fadd9
Strangers' silence makes me wanna take the stairs
C Am7 Fadd9
If you were here we'd laugh about their vacant stares
C G/B Fadd9
But right now, my time is theirs
C Am7 Fadd9
Seems like there's always someone who disapproves
C Am7 Fadd9
They'll judge it like they know about me and you
C Am7 Fadd9
And the verdict comes from those with nothing else to do
C G/B Fadd9
The jury's out, but my choice is you
Fadd9 G
So don't you worry your pretty little mind
C Am7
People throw rocks at things that shine
Fadd9 G Am7
And life makes love look hard
Fadd9
The stakes are high
G
The waters rough
C Am7 Fadd9 G C
But this love is ours
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
Its a love story baby just say yes
Am F
I got tired of waiting, wondering if
C G
you were ever coming around
Am F
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 that's all I really know
Bm
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
G A D
Its a love story baby just say yes
