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
