Finds a convenient streetlight, steps out of the shade, and says something like
F
"You and me, babe,
G

C
Juliet says, Hey, it's Romeo!
Am
He nearly gave me a heart attack, yeah well
C
He's underneath my window, now she's singing
Am
"Hey-la, my boyfriend's back."
G
You shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that
F
Oh, anyway, whatcha gonna do a
G

C
We both came up on different streets,
Am
and they were both the streets of shame
C
Both dirty, both mean, and
Am
even the dreams were the same
G
Well I dreamed your dream for you, and now your dream is real, so tell me, honey
F
How can you look at me as if I was
G
just another one of your deals? Now you can
C
Pawn your chains of silver,
Am
and you can pawn your chains of gold. You know
C
You fall for pretty strangers
Am
and the promises they hold
G
Well you promised me everything, and then you promised me thick and thin and now you
F
Just turn away and say, Romeo? I
G
think I used to have a scene with him. Oh,
C
Juliet,
G
when we made
F
love you used to cry you said "I
C
Love you like the
G
stars above, gonna
F
love you till I die." There's a
C
Place for
G
us,
Am
I know you know this song
G
Now when you gonna realize that it was
F
just that the time was wrong?
C
Julie, I'm
Am
so in love, so in love
C
Yeah.

C
But I can't do the talk
Am
like they talk on my TV screen, and
C
I can't do a love song,
Am
not the way you sung it to me
G
I can't do anything, but I would do anything for you, oh now
F
I can't do anything except be in
G
love with you, yeah now,
C
All I do is miss you
Am
and the way you used to be, you know
C
And all I do is keep the beat,
Am
I keep bad, bad company.
G
And all I do is kiss you through the bars of this rhyme, well
F
Julie, I'd do the stars with you
G
anytime.
C
Oh, Juliet,
G
when we made
F
love you used to cry; you said "I
C
Love you like the
G
stars above, I'm gonna
F
love you till I die." There's a
C
Place for
G
us, I
Am
know you know the movie song
G
One day we're gonna realize that it was
F
just that the time was wrong

C
Well this lovestruck Romeo
Am
sings the streets a serenade
C
Laying everybody low,
Am
he's got a love song that he made
G
He finds a convenient streetlight, and he'll step out of the shade, and he'll say some
thing like
F
"You and me, babe,
G
how about it?"
