Notes in parenthesis are optional. Alex sometimes skips out on the root notes I 
think to make it easier to play.


     F                  A7                   Dm
In a foreign place, the saving grace was the feeling

Cm                              Bb
That it was a heart that he was stealing

          Gm                       F
Oh he was ready to impress and the fierce excitement

    A7                          Dm
The eyes are bright he couldn’t wait to get away

      Cm                           Bb
And I bet the Juliet was just the icing on the cake

Am               Gm     Bb
 Make no mistake no

                                 Bbm                      Am
And even if somehow we could have shown you the place you wanted

         D7                                   Gm                  Bb
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

     Cm                            Bb
Well all the little promises they don’t mean much

             Gm
When there’s memories to be made

      F                   A7                 Dm
And I hope you're holding hands by new years eve

     Cm                         Bb
They made it far too easy to believe

             Am                      Gm           Bb
That true romance can’t be achieved these days

                              Bbm                       Am
And even if somebody could have shown you the place you wanted

       D7                                   Gm
Well I sure you could have made it that bit better on your own

            Bb
You are the only ones who know
