Romeo and Juliet Uke tab by Hobo Johnson

* = stop strumming until next chord



It feels so good
A                      Am
Oh that's my shit right there

That's the ticket

Give me the ticket
               *
Give it to me, baby 

         D
I'm too emotional

Good luck to my future wives
                            *
And their future lives without me

You guys will do great!
G                                       D
I'm sure that I've prepared you for every guy you'll date

And every guy you'll marry
                     G
And every guy you'll hate

It's the lullabies I sang out of tune

That's probably what did it
      Am
Or my twin size mattress that I had since I was seven
        Bm
That we have to sleep on whenever she spends the night
                                            *
And if she falls off again, she'll find another guy to like

           G
We're just Romeo & Juliet
                            Bm 
But getting drunk and eating 
                     G
But just to ease the stress

But soft what light, through yonder window breaks
      *
It is the east, but Juliet just puked off the balcony
G
How romantic

                     Gm
Nothing like getting drunk and getting manic

On a motherfucking Monday, I
G
I brush the bangs behind her lovely little ear
                                    *
As she describes in detail how the end is truly near
     G
Wow, and I'm sure that we can do this for forever
   G7                                    Bm7
Or until we drink the poison, 'cause she sees some cloudy weather
   Gmaj7
As Rosaline, lies in bed, seething, wide awake
         D7
Because a burning love for Juliet only took a day
       *
And if Romeo and Juliet continued to be married

Then there's half of a chance

That their kids would get embarrassed

When all the kids at school all talk about their parents
    F                D#
And Romeo Jr. has to say they're not together
    G
And Junior will dream of the day when he's a man

And what he'll do to avoid that fifty percent chance

Of his kids feeling the way he feels

He'll probably just stick with the Netflix and chill


Dear Shakespeare

Could you write a happy ending please?

Could you write a happy ending please?

We just deserve a happy ending please, please
          C                        *
And every sting from every teardrop
     D
From every ring at every pawn shop

I'm not missing both my Christmas'

Though family would be nice

In my dreams, my kids are happy

And I know that they won't mind
G
One Christmas

Just one Christmas 

Just one Christmas

Just one Christmas


But dear mom
D                                               *
Conversations from a couch haven't ever felt the same

Since you looked Dad in the eye

And you told him that things are about to change

My mom was made from Adam's rib

And the marriage went south

When the snake came back and asked my mother out to dinner

And my dad found out, and asked my mom what that's about

And she said "Oh, it's nothing"

For dad loves to shout really loud

Loud enough to knock the lamps and dressers to the ground

In my memory, I can hear

Chopin's nocturnes playing in the background
  D                                 *
A slow trainwreck, you'll close your eyes
But forever hear the sound, and boy, it's tough
'Cause that's the sound of people falling out of love
