A                            F#m                          A
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
                             F#m                         D
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
E                           D E                    A
He find a streetlight, he steps out of the shade
                                    D                                 E
He says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"
A                               F#m                                          A
Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack"
He's underneath the window

She's singing, "Hey, la, my boyfriend's back
E                           D    E                                          A
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that
             D                                   E
Anyway, what you going to do about it?"

[Chorus]
A         E                     F#m                D
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
        A       E         F#m                    D
And I bet, when you exploded in my heart
            A        E   D   F#m             D
And I forget, I forget the movie song

When you going to realize

It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

A                                         F#m                                         A
Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
                                     F#m                                    D
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same
E                                               D        E                              A
Then I dreamed your dream for you, and now your dream is real
D                                            E
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
A
You can fall for chains of silver
F#m
You can fall for chains of gold
A                                         F#m                          D
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
E                                     D
You promised me everything
E                                           A
You promised me thick and thin, yeah
D 
Now you just say, "Oh, Romeo, yeah
E
You know, I used to have a scene with him"

[Chorus 2]
A    E                            F#m                  D
Juliet, when we made love, you used to cry
A                                      E                       F#m                 D
I said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die"

And there's a place for us, you know that movie song
Bm        
When you going to realize
D                                  E    F#m        E   A
It was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

[Verse 3]
A                            F#m                         A
I can't do the talk like the talk on the TV
                                        F#m                           D
And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
E                         D       E                        A
I can't do everything, but I'd do anything for you
D                                                      A
I can't do anything except be in love with you
A                                       F#m                      A
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
                                                F#m               D
And all I do is keep the beat and the bad company
E                               D    E                      A
And all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
D                                         E
Juliet, I'd do the stars with you anytime

A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade

Laying everybody low with a love song that he made

He find convenient streetlight, he steps out of the shade
                                    D                                 E
Says something like, "You and me, babe, how about it?"
