[Intro]
C G Am G x4
 
[Verse 1]
C                 G Am                           G C
  A lovestruck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade
                    G Am               F
Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made
G                   F G                C
 Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
                   F                         G
Says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"
 
[verse 2]
C                            G Am                                  G C
  Juliet says, "Hey it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack"
                          G             Am           F
He's underneath the window she's singing, "Hey la my boyfriend's back.
G                               F G                        C
  You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that.
F                            G
  Anyway what you gonna do about it?"
 
[Chorus]
    C  G             Am              F
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
      C   G        Am             F
And I bet, and you exploded in my heart
          C         Am F
And I forget, I forget, the movie song
Dm              C               F            C        G       C
 When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
 
[Interlude]
 C G Am G x2
 
[Verse 3]
C                     G      Am                               G C
  Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
                 G   Am                      F
Both dirty, both mean, yes and the dream was just the same
G                              F       G                 C
  And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
F                                    G
  How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
 
[Verse 4]
             C                        G Am                          G    C
Well you can fall for chains of silver,  you can fall for chains of gold
                        G        Am            F
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
G                           F G                C
  You promised me everything   you promised me thick and thin, yeah
F                                              G
  Now you just say, "oh Romeo, yeah you know I used to have a scene with him"
 
[Chorus]
    C  G             Am               F
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
             C                 G                Am              F
You said, "I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die"
          C       Am  F
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
Dm               C              F             C        G      C
  When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
 
 
[Interlude]
 C G Am G x2
 
[Verse 5]
C                   Am                     G C
  I can't do the talk, like they talk on TV
                          G Am                 F
And I can't do a love song   like the way it's meant to be
G                     F        G               C
 I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you
F                              G
 I can't do anything except be in love with you
 
[Verse 6]
C                          Am                         C
  And all I do is miss you,  and the way we used to be
                          Am       F
All I do is keep the beat,  and bad company
G                    F G                     C
  All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
F                                G
 Juliet I'd do the stars with you any time
 
[Chorus]
    C  G             Am               F
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
             C                 G                Am              F
You said, "I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die"
          C       Am  F
There's a place for us, you know the movie song
Dm               C              F             C        G      C
  When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

 C G F
 
[Verse 1]
C                 G Am                           G C
  A lovestruck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade
                    G Am               F
Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made
G                              F G                C
 Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade
                    F                       G
Says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"
