Intro
Intro
[stop] [stop]
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
[stop] [stop]
Now he's laying everybody low, he's got a love song that he made
[stop]
He finds a convenient streetlight, and he, he steps out of the shade
and he says something like
You and me, babe, how about it?
Juliet says, Hey, it's Romeo! He nearly gave me a heart attack, yeah well
[stop]
He's underneath my window, now she's singing, hey-la, my boyfriend's back
You shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that
Oh, anyway, whatcha gonna do about it?
Juliet, the dice were loaded from the start
And I bet, and you exploded into my heart
And I forget, I forget the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong
Julie?
Instrumental
[stop] [stop]
We both come up on different streets, and they were both the streets of shame
[stop]
You know they're both dirty, both mean, yes and even the dreams were the same
Well I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real, so tell me honey
Now how can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
Now you can fall for chains of silver, and you can fall for chains of gold
You know you, you fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
Well you promised me everything, and then you, and then you promised me thick
and thin
[stop]
And now you just turn away and say, Romeo?
I think I used to have a scene with him
Oh, Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said I love you like the stars above, gonna love you till I die
There's a place for us, I know you know this song
Now when you gonna realize that it was just that the time was wrong?
Julie, I'm so in love, so in love
Yeah
[stop]
But I can't do the talk, like they talk on my TV screen, and
I can't do a love song, not the way you sung them to me
I can't do anything, but I would do anything for you, oh now
I can't do anything except be in love with you, yeah now
All I do is miss you and the way you used to be, you know
[stop]
And all I do is keep the beat, I keep bad, bad company
And all I do is kiss you through the bars of this rhyme, well
Julie, I'd do the stars with you anytime
Oh, Juliet, when we made love you used to cry; you said I
Love you like the stars above, I'm gonna love you till I die. There's a
Place for us, I know you know the movie song
[hold]
One day we're gonna realize that it was just that the time was wrong
Julie, Julie
Julie
[stop] [stop]
Well this lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
[stop] [stop]
He's laying everybody low, he's got a love song that he made
[stop] [stop]
He finds a convenient streetlight, and he'll, he'll step out of the shade
And he'll say something like, you and me, babe, how about it?
TAB:
The measures that I wrote as "C* C* Am* Am*" go something like this:
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
d d u u d u u d u d u d d u d u u u d
It'll make sense once you try it. The middle and ring fingers change
the C chord, and the index finger and pinky mess with the Am.
