^CMontague and ^DCapulet ^GAlready sets the ^Emscene ^CI knew you were a ^Dfoolish bet But it was ^Gbetter to beg than bleed^{Em C}From the very first ^Dnight we met ^GYou made me love you and I ^Emnever should have left you ^CRomeo and ^DJuliet ^GNothing but a writer's ^Cdream ^C/B

^AmOh, I remember the ^Dtime when you told me "Baby, lov^Ge is a work of ar^Ct" ^{C/B Am}I saw you scanning the ^Dcorners of the canvas Just like you ^Gdidn't know where to star^Ct ^DI can't imagine the ^Gportrait you were painting When you ^Emsaw me looking so al^Cone, oh no ^{C/B Am}That's something only the ^Dartist could’ve known

^CBy the coast when I h^Deld your hand ^GFeels like a distant d^Emream ^CI knew I was a ^Dfoolish man But I was ^Gcaught up in a ^Emfantasy ^CYou held my face and you g^Dently kissed me ^GBut all it told me was how ^Emmuch you'd miss me ^CRomeo and ^DJuliet ^GAlways bound to call a ^Cscene ^C/B
