Love Story by: Taylor Swift

[Intro]

C  G  Am  F

[Verse]

C

We were both young when I first saw you

  F

I close my eyes and the flashback starts

             Am                    F

I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air

C

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns

F

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

And I was crying on the staircase

G                        Am  F     G

Begging you please don't go, 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 princess

F                 G                 C

It's a love story baby just say "yes"

[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

[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 I was

G                        Am  F   G

Begging you please don't go, 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 princess

F                 G

It's a love story baby just say yes

C

Romeo, save me, they try 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, oh

[Solo]

C  G  Am  F G

[Bridge]

               Am       F              C                          G

I got tired of waiting,   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 and I said

[Chorus]

C

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

D

Marry me, Juliet 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                 A            D

It's a love story baby just say yes

[Outro]

D  A      Bm

Uh oh, uh oh

G                       A            D

We were both young when I first saw you
