A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade

He's underneath the window, she's singing "Hey la, my boyfriend's back

You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that,
F G
Anyway, what you gonna do about it...?"

[Verse 2]
C G Am G C
Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame
G Am F
Both dirty, both mean, yes, and the dream was just the same
G F G C
And I dreamed your dream for you, and now your dream is real
F G
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
C G Am G C
Well, you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold
G Am F
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
G F G C
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah
F G
Now you just say, "Oh Romeo? yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him"
[Chorus]
C G Am F
Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
C G Am F
You said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die"
C F Am F
There's a place for us you know the movie song
Dm F Am G C
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?
