Not Romeo Not Juliet

 B              A
This is story about a boy and girl
 E
Trying find a life in the big world
B  A  E
Somehow they're together

 B                       A
There ain't much to the mystery
E
Misery loves company
B  A  E
She just waves her hand and says 
whatever

 F#                    G#m     
Well this ain't love, this ain't 
         A
love, this ain't love at all

And he says

[Chorus]

E          B               F#m
 We're not Romeo we're not Juliet
                    A              
How long does it take to fill this 
E (E9)
emptyness
E                              B 
 We're just two lost souls and 
             F#m
baby we got no regrets
F#m                    A
We don't wanna say bye-bye
F#m                    A
Babe it's just you and I
F#m                  A
We're not Romeo we're not Juliet

  B                     A
He ain't pretty with his hard old 
heart
Continues after the ad
E
Second generation immigrant scars
B  A  E
And he knows that this ain't heaven 
- no no
 B                        A
She's all skinny like a cigarette
E
And he's the only thing - the only 
thing that she respects
B  A  E
And he's trying to make it better

 F#                      G#m      
And if this ain't love, this ain't
        A
 love, this ain't love at all

And she says

[Chorus]

E          B               F#m
 We're not Romeo we're not Juliet
                            A    
You'd thought you'd seen it all - 
                    E ( E9 )
but you ain't seen nothin' yet
E                              B 
 We're just two lost souls and 
             F#m
baby we got no regrets
F#m                  A
Now it's just you and I
F#m                    A
We're nothin' unless we try
F#m                 A
We're not Romeo... not Juliet

( B  D#m  A  B )

It has feel right but it never does
D#m
It has to be perfect but it never is
A
You wanna be sure but you never do
B
We're not Romeo or Juliet - it's 
just me and you

[Solo] E  B  F#m
       F#m  A  E

E                              B 
 We're just two lost souls and 
             F#m
baby we got no regrets
F#m                   A
 Don't wanna say bye-bye
F#m                    A
Babe it's just you and I
F#m           G#m  A       A
We're not Romeo we're not Juliet 
na-na-no!

E          B               F#m
 We're not Romeo we're not Juliet
                    A              
How long does it take to fill this 
E ( E9 )
emptyness
E                              B 
 We're just two lost souls and 
             F#m
baby we got no regrets
F#m                   A
Now it's just you and I
F#m                    A
We're nothin' unless we try - oh no

E
We're not Romeo - not Juliet

No we're not - that's a fact
