      Am               F
 The cafe's are all deserted

        C         G       F
 The streets are wet again

          Am         
 There's nothing quite like

    F              C                   G          
 An out of season holiday town in the rain

           Am
 When the tourists go

          F
 And the cold winds blow

         C      G         F
 And my girl is on a plane

     Dm
 Home

      Am                F
 I'm never gonna love another

      C                F
 The way I have loved you

       Am                F
 It's taken me a little time to discover it

C                  G
 Now I know it's true

      F         G
 But fatal hesitation

          C     G   F
 Made me miss the show

Am   C     Dm        Em                F G
 Ooooooh, Romeo is standing in the rain

     C   Dm                  Em        F G
 And I know that I have let her slip away

  Am    G   F    C F Am    G   F     C G
 Fatal hesitation,  fatal hesitation

    Am                 F
 I saw you again this morning

  C       G            F
 Walking down the beach

       Am                       F
 And though you are a thousand miles away

          C                  G
 You were only just out of reach

         F                  G
 When I got up close and I saw her face

     C       G          F
 I knew it couldn't be so

  Am      C     Dm        Em                F G
 No, nooooooo, Romeo is standing in the rain

     C  Dm                  Em            F G
 And I wish I know, I have let her slip away

  Am    G   F    C F Am    G   F     Ab
 Fatal hesitation,  fatal hesitation oh

                   Bb                C
 I'm gonna get on my boat and sail away
Am G F C F Am G F C G F C F Dm
Am   C     Dm        Em                F G
 Ooooooh, Romeo is standing in the rain

     C   Dm                  Em        F G
 And I know that I have let her slip away

  C         Dm   Em F G C         Dm   Em F G
 Fatal hesitation,     fatal hesitation
C Dm Em F G C Dm Em
F           G              C
 I'm gonna read a little Shakespeare

Dm                     Em
 And get her outta my head

     F       G         C   Dm Em
 It doesn't matter anymore

F       G               C
 Gonna miss her just a little bit

Dm       Em        F G C Dm Em F G C
 Just a little bit
