Love Story

(originally by Taylor Swift)
[Intro]
C G Am F
 
 
[Verse 1]
C
We were both young when I first saw you
F
I close my eyes, and the flashback starts
             Am
I'm standing there
                F
On a balcony in summer air
C
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
Fmaj7
See you make your way through the crowd
          Am
And say, "Hello"
            G
Little did I know
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F                                      G
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
       Am                           C
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
       F
I was crying on the staircase
G                           Am
Begging you, "Please don't go,"
F            G
       and I said
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
G
I'll be waiting, all there's lеft to do is run
Am
You'll be the prince and I'll bе the prince too
F                  G
It's a love story, baby, just say
 
C
 
 
[Verse 2]
C
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
F
We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if they knew
              Am
So close your eyes
                       G
Escape this town for a little while, oh
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 F                             G
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
       Am                          C
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
F
But you were everything to me
      G                          Am
I was begging you, "Please don't go,"
G
   and I said
 
 
[Chorus]
C
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
G
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
Am
You'll be the prince and I'll be the prince too
F                  G
It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"
C
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
G
This love is difficult, but it's real
Am
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
F                  G
It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
C G
G        Am
Oh baby, baby, just say "Yes"
 
F G
 
 
[Bridge]
               Am
I got tired of waiting
F               C                    G
   Wondering if you were ever coming around
Am                        F
   My faith in you was fading
        C                G
When I met you on the outskirts of town
 
 
[Verse 3]
         C
I said, "Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone
G
I keep waiting for you but you never come
   Am
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think"
   F                       G
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring, and said
 
 
[Chorus]
 D
"Marry me, Julian, you'll never have to be alone
A
I love you, and that's all I really know
  Bm
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
G
It's a love story, baby, just say 'Yes'"
 
D
 
 
[Outro]
         Am   A
Oh, say "Yes"
Bm G A D
