Verse
F# G#
Montague and Capulet
C# A#m
Already sets the scene
F# G#
I knew you were a foolish bet
C# F#
But it was better to beg than bleed
F# G#
From the very first night we met
C# A#m
You made me love you and I never should have left you
F# G#
Romeo and Juliet
C# F#
Nothing but a writer's dream
[Chorus]
D#m A#m
I remember the time when you told me
C# F#
"Baby, love is a work of art"
D#m G#
I saw you scanning the corners of the canvas
C# F#
Just like you didn't know where to
start
G# C#
I can't imagine the portrait you were painting
A#m F#
When you saw me looking so alone, oh no
D#m G#
That's something only the artist could know
[Refrain]
F# G# C# A#
Oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo-oo
[Verse 2]
F# G#
By the coast when I held your hand
C# A#m
Feels like a distant dream
F# G#
I knew I was a foolish man
C# F#
But I was caught up in a fantasy
F# G#
You held my face and you gently kissed
C# A#m
But all it told me was how much you'd miss me
F# G#
Romeo and Juliet
C# F#
Always bound to call a scene
[Chorus]
D#m G#
I remember the time when you told me
C# F#
"Baby, love is a work of art"
D#m G#
I saw you scanning the corners of the canvas
