        A lovestruck Romeo     sings the streets a serenade
                            C-Dm                   A# 
        Laying everybody low     with a love song that he made
       C                   A#-C                     F

        Juliet says hey it's Romeo,    you nearly gave me a heart attack
                                  C-Dm                          A#
        He's underneath the window,    she's singing hey la my boyfriends back
       C                            A#-C                          F  
        you shouldn't come around here  singing up to people like that
       A#                         C                  
        Anyway, what you gonna do about it?




Chorus I:
            F-C              Dm    C          A#
        Juliet the dice was loaded from the start
              F  C           Dm     C        A#         
        And I bet, and you exploded in my heart.
                 F        C   Dm              A# 
        And I forget, I forget, the movie song
        Gm                F           A#             C       Dm C- F
        When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong... Juliet?

        Come up on different streets,   they both the streets of shame
                         C-Dm                            A#
        Both dirty both mean,  yes and even and dream was just the same
       C                               A#-C                        F
        And I dreamed your dream for you    and now your dream is real.
       A#                                   C
        How can you look at me as if I was just another part of your deal
                     F                        C-Dm                              C-F
        Well you can fall for chains of silver,   you can fall for chains of gold.
                                      C-Dm              A#
        you can fall for pretty strangers  and the promises they hold
       C                         A#-C                 F
        You promised me everything,   you promised me thick and thin yeah
       A#                                  C

        you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die
                  F      C    Dm                      A#
        There's a place for us, you know the movie song
        Gm                F           A#             C       Dm C- F

        I can't do the talk,  like they talk on the TV
                             C-Dm                   A#   
        I can't do a love song,   like the way it's meant to be.
       C                  A#-C                           F
        I can't do anything,    but I'd do anything for you.
       A#                           C

       F                       C-Dm                         C-F
        And all I do is miss you    and the way we used to be
                               C-Dm          A#
        All I do is keep the beat   and bad company.
       C                   A#-C                         F
        All I do is kiss you   through the bars of a rhyme
       A#                               C
        Juliet I'd do the stars with you anytime.

        you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die
                  F      C    Dm                      A#
        There's a place for us, you know the movie song
        Gm                F           A#             C       Dm C- F

                                    C-Dm                   A#
        Now he's laying everybody low,   with a love song that he made.
       C                             A#-C                    F
        Finds a convenient street light,  steps out of the shade
