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

  Finds...a street light,   steps out of the shade
                    Bb                       C

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

        Bb                   C
Anyway,   what you gonna do about it...?"

Chorus:
    F   C              Dm              Bb
Juliet,   the dice was loaded from the start
      F    C           Dm           Bb
And I bet,   and you exploded in my heart
         F         Bb   Dm            Bb
And I forget, I forget      the movie song
Gm                               Bb             Dm      C           F

   Come up on different streets,      they both were streets of shame
                 C    Dm              Bb
Both dirty, both mean,   yes, and the dream was just the same
C                               Bb        C                 F
   And I dreamed your dream for you,  and now your dream is real
Bb                                    C
  How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

Well, you can fall for chains of silver,      you can fall for chains of gold
                             C    Dm              Bb
You can fall for pretty strangers    and the promises they hold
C                            Bb C                 F
  You promised me everything,    you promised me thick and thin, yeah
Bb                                              C

You said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die"
          F         Bb Dm                    Bb
There's a place for us    you know the movie song

  I can't do the talks,      like they talk on the TV
                           C Dm                   Bb

C                       Bb C                      F
   All I do is kiss you,   through the bars of a rhyme

There's a place for us    you know...the movie song
