Romeo and Juliet

Mark Knopfler / Dire Straits

intro: |: F Bb :|
F C Dm C F
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
F C Dm C Bb
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
C Bb C F
Finds a street light steps out into the shade
Bb C
Says something like you and me babe, how about it?
F C Dm C F
Juliet says hey it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack
F C Dm C Bb
He's underneath the window, she's singing hey la my boyfriends back
C Bb C F
you shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that
Bb C
Anyway, what you gonna do about it?
F C Dm C Bb
Juliet the dice was loaded from the start
F C Dm C Bb
And I bet, and you ex-ploded in my heart.
F C Dm Bb
And I forget, I forget, the movie song
Gm F Bb C Dm C F
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet?
 
Come up on different streets, they both the streets of shame 
Both dirty both mean, yes and even and dream was just the same 
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real. 
How can you look at me as if I was just another part of your deal 
 
Well you can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold. 
you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold 
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin yeah 
Now you just say oh Romeo yeah, I used to have a scene with him. 
Juliet when we made love you used to cry 
you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die 
There's a place for us, you know the movie song 
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet? 
 
I can't do the talk, like they talk on the tv 
I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be. 
I can't do anything, but I'd do anything for you. 
I cant't do anything but be in love with you. 
 
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be 
All I do is keep the beat and bad company. 
All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme 
Juliet I'd do the stars with you anytime. 
Juliet when we made love you used to cry 
you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die 
There's a place for us, you know the movie song 
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet? 
 
A love struck Romeo, sings the streets a serenade. 
Now he's laying everybody low, with a love song that he made. 
Finds a convenient street light, steps out of the shade 
Says something like you and me babe how about it. 
outro: Bb C
