Intro: F A7 Dm F7 Gm F A7 Dm F7 Gm F
F
In a foreign place
A7 Dm
The saving grace was the feeling
F7 Bb
That it was her heart that he was stealing
Gm
He was ready to impress
F
And the fierce excitement
A7
The eyes are bright
Dm
He couldn't wait to get away
F7 Bb
And I bet that Juliet was just the icing on the cake
Am Gm
Make no mistake, no
Bb Bbm
And even if somehow he could have shown you
Am
The place you wanted
D7 Gm Bbm
Well I'm sure you could have made it that bit better on your own
F A7 Dm
And I bet she told a million people that she'd stay in touch
F7 Bb
But all the little promises that don't mean much
Gm
When there's memories to be made
F A7 Dm
And I hope you're holding hands by new year's eve
F7 Bb
They made it far too easy to believe
Am Gm
That true romance can't be achieved these days
Bb Bbm
And even if somehow they could have shown you
Am
The place you wanted
D7 Gm
Well I'm sure you could have made it that bit better on your own
Bbm
You are the only ones who know
( F A7 Dm F7 Bb Am Gm Gm Gm F )
