Intro
Piano A (bare)
Verse1
This is story about a boy and girl
Trying find a life in the big world
Somehow they're together
There ain't much to the mystery
Misery loves company
She just waves her hand and says whatever
Prechorus
Well this ain't love, this ain't love, this ain't love at all
And he says...
Chorus
We're not Romeo we're not Fm#Juliet
How long does it take to fill this emptyness
We're just two lost souls and baby we got no Fm#regrets
Fm#We don't wanna say bye-bye
Fm#Babe it's just you and I
Fm#We're not RomeGm#o we're not Juliet
Verse2
He ain't pretty with his hard old heart
Second generation immigrant scars
And he knows that this ain't heaven - no no
She's all skinny like a cigarette
And he's the only thing - the only thing that she respects
And he's trying to make it better
Prechorus
And iGm#f this ain't love, this ain't love, this ain't love at all
And she says...
Chorus
We're not Romeo we're not Fm#Juliet
You'd thought you'd seen it all - but you ain't seen nothin' yet
We're just two lost souls and baby we got no Fm#regrets
Fm#Now it's just you and I
Fm#We're nothin' unless we try
Fm#We're not RomeGm#o ... not Juliet
Bridge
Dm#
It has feel right but it never does
It has to be perfect but it never is
You wanna be sure but you never do
We're not Romeo or Juliet - it's just me and you
