Romeo Had Juliette


Intro/Verses 

     A                E              D 



A                                  E 
Caught between the twisted stars, the plotted lines, the faulty map 
           D 
That brought Columbus to New York 
A                                  E 
Betwixt between the East and West, he calls on her wearing a leather vest 
           D 
The earth squeals and shudders to a halt 
A                                  E 
A diamond crucifix in his ear is used to help ward off the fear 
          D 
That he has left his soul in someone's rented car 
A                                  E 
Inside his pants he hides a mop to clean the mess that he has dropped 
          D 
Into the life of lithesome Juliette Belle 

A                                  E                D 
And Romeo wanted Juliette and Juliette wanted Romeo 
A                                  E                D 
And Romeo wanted Juliette and Juliette wanted Romeo 

A                                  E 
Romeo Rodriguez squares his shoulders and curses Jesus 
        D 
Runs a comb through his black pony-tail 
A                                 E 
He's thinking of his lonely room, the sink by his bed gives off a stink 
       D 
Then smells her perfume in his eyes and her voice was like a bell 


A E Outside the streets were steaming the crack dealers were dreaming D Of an Uzi someone had just scored A E "I bet you I could hit that light with my one good arm behind my back" D Says Little Joey Diaz A E Brother give me another tote, those downtown hoods are no damn good D Those Italians need a lesson to be taught A E This cop who died in Harlem, you'd think they'd get the warning D I was dancing when his brains run out on the street A E D And Romeo wanted Juliette and Juliette wanted Romeo A E D And Romeo wanted Juliette and Juliette wanted Romeo A E I'll take Manhattan in a garbage bag, with Latin written on it that says D "It's hard to give a shit these days" A E Manhattan's sinking like a rock into the filthy Hudson, what a shock D They wrote a book about it, they said it was like ancient Rome A E The perfume burned his eyes, holding tightly to her thighs D E And something flickered for a minute and then it vanished and was gone
