[Intro] E
[Primeira Parte]
E
There once was a bitter-sweet man
G#
And they called him Lemon Boy
A
He was growing in my garden
F#m
And I pulled him out by his hair
B
Like a weed
E
And like weeds do he only came
G#
And grew back again
A
So I figured this time
F#m B
I might as well let him be
[Refrão]
A E
Lemon Boy and me
G# C#m B
Started to get along together
A E
I'll help him plant his seeds
G# C#m B
And we'd mow the lawn in bad weather
A E G#
It's actually pretty easy being nice
C#m B A
To a bitter boy like him
B E
So I got myself a citrus friend
[Segunda Parte]
E
But soon his bitter-sweet
G#
Started to rub off on me
A
You'd think smelling like lemon
F#m B
Zest would be pretty neat
E
I found out that my friends
G#
Were more of the savory type
A
And they weren't too keen with
F#m B
Compromising with a nice lemon pie
[Refrão]
A E
So Lemon Boy and me
G# C#m B
We just got to get along together
A E
I helped him plant his seeds
G# C#m B
And we'd mow the lawn in bad weather
A E G#
It's actually pretty easy being nice
C#m B A
To a bitter boy like him
B E
So I got myself a citrus friend
[Ponte]
E G#
But what if I run out of fertilizer?
A Am
What if the clouds run out of rain?
A E
What if Lemon Boy won't grow no longer?
G# A Am
What if beaches dry of sugar cane? Oh well
E
The whales start to beach themselves
G# A
Tortoise shells tear away from their spines
Am
It happens all the time
F#m B E
It happens all the time
( E G# A Am F#m B )
[Final]
A E
Lemon Boy and I
G# C#m B
We're gonna live forever
A E
Like Snufkin and Little My
G# C#m B
E'll get around wherever
A E
Lemon Boy and I
G# C#m B
We're gonna live forever
A E
Like Snufkin and Little My
G# C#m B
We'll get around wherever
A E G#
It's actually pretty easy being nice
C#m B A
To a bitter boy like him
B A
Cause we're the bitterest boys in town
B A
Yeah we're the bitterest guys around
B E
And I've got myself a citrus friend
