VERSE
G D/F# Cadd9
Love struck Romeo sings a streetsuss seranade
G D/F# Cadd9
Layin' everybody low with a lovesong that he made
D/F# Cadd9 (only on fast strum) D/F#
Finds a streetlight steps out of the shade and says sth like
Cadd9 D/F#
you and me babe how about it
(chords stay the same)
Juliet says 'hey it's romeo' he nearly gave me a heart attack
he's underneath my window, singin' 'hey la my boyfriend's back'
you shouldn't come around here singin' up at people like that
anyway what you gonna do about it
CHORUS
G D/F# Em7 Cadd9
Juliet our dice were loaded from the start
G D/F# Em7 Cadd9
and I bet you exploded into my heart
G D/F# Em7 Cadd9
I forget I forget the movie song
D/F# Cadd9 D/F# (quick change)
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
G D/F# Cadd9
Ju-u-u-u-liet
VERSE (chords like before)
Come upon different streets, and they're both the streets of shame
Both dirty both mean, and you're dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
so how can you look at me as if i just anotherone of your dreals
where you can fall for chains of silver and you can fall for chains of gold
you can fa-aall for pretty strangers, and the promisses they hold
you promissed you everything you promissed me thick and thin now just
turn around and say romeo yeah, you know i just to have a scene with him
CHORUS
Juliet when we made love you jused to cry
You said I love you like the stars above I'm gonna love you till i die
and i forget i forget the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
Ju-uliet
VERSE
And I can't do the talk like the talk on the TV
And I can't do a lovesong the way it's meant to be
So all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet I do the stars with you any time
CHORUS
Juliet when we made love you jused to cry
You said I love you like the stars above I'm gonna love you till i die
Say there's a place for us
the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
Ju-u-u-u-liet
