Biography:
Dire Straits were a British rock band from Newcastle, United Kingdom, formed in 1977 by Mark Knopfler (guitar and vocals), his brother David Knopfler (guitar), John Illsley (bass), and Pick Withers (drums), and subsequently managed by Ed Bicknell. The band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018.
Dire Straits emerged during the post-punk era of the late '70s, and while their sound was minimalistic and stripped down, they owed little to punk.

intro:
F Dm x4
Verse I:
F C Dm C F
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
F C Dm C Bb
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made
C Bb C F
Finds a street light steps out into the shade
Bb C
Says something like you and me babe how about it
F C Dm C F
Juliet says hey it's Romeo you nearly gave me a heart attack
F C Dm C Bb
He's underneath the window she's singing hey la my boyfriends back
C Bb C F
you shouldn't come around here singing up to people like that
Bb C
Anyway what you gonna do about it
Chorus I:
F C Dm C Bb
Juliet the dice was loaded from the start
F C Dm C Bb
And I bet and you exploded in my heart
F C Dm Bb
And I forget I forget the movie song
Gm F Bb C Dm C F
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet
Verse II:
Come up on different streets they both the streets of shame
Both dirty both mean yes and even and dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another part of your deal
Well you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
You promised me everything you promised me thick and thin yeah
Now you just say oh Romeo yeah I used to have a scene with him
Chorus II:
Juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong Juliet
Verse III:
I can't do the talk like they talk on the tv
I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be
I can't do anything but I'd do anything for you
I cant't do anything but be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is keep the beat and bad company
All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Juliet I'd do the stars with you anytime
Repeat Chorus II:
Verse IV:
A love struck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Now he's laying everymody low with a love song that he made
Finds a convenient street light steps out of the shade
Says something like you and me babe how about it
