Love Story

(originally by Taylor Swift) [Verse 1] Dm We were both young when I first saw you Gm I close my eyes, and the flashback starts Bb I'm standing there A On a balcony in summer air Dm See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns Gm See you make your way through the crowd Bb And say, "Hello" A Little did I know [Pre-Chorus 1] Gm A That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles Bb Dm And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet" Gm And I was crying on the staircase A Bb Dm A Begging you, "Please don't go-o-o", and I said [Chorus 1] Dm Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone A I'll be waiting, all therе's left to do is run Bb You'll be the princе and I'll be the princess Gm A It's a love story, baby, just say.. [Verse 2] Dm So I sneak out to the garden to see you Gm We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if they knew Bb So close your eyes A Escape this town for a little while [Pre-Chorus 2] Gm A 'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter Bb Dm And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet" Gm But you were everything to me A Bbmaj7 Dm A I was begging you, "Please don't go-o-o", and I said [Chorus 2] Dm Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone A I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run Bbmaj7 Bb You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess Gm A It's a love story baby just say "Yes" Dm Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel A This love is difficult, but it's real Bb Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess Gm A Dm It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes" Bridge Bb Gm I got tired of waiting Dm A Wondering if you were ever coming around Bb Gm My faith in you was fading Dm A When I met you on the outskirts of town Dm And I said, "Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone A I keep waiting for you but you never come Bb Is this in my head? I don't know what to think" Gm A He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring, and said Outro Em "Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone B I love you, and that's all I really know C I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress Am B Em It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"
