[Intro]
G G
[Verse 1]
G B7 There once was a bittersweet man and they called him, "Lemon Boy" C Am D He was growing in my garden and I pulled him out by his hair like a weed G B7 And like weeds do he only came and grew back again C Am D So, I figured this time I might as well let him be
[Chorus]
C G B7 Em D Lemon Boy and me started to get along together C G B7 Em D I'd help him plant his seeds and we mowed the lawn in bad weather C G B7 Em D C It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him D G So, I got myself a citrus friend
[Verse 2]
G B7 But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on me C Am D You'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat G B7 I found out that my friends are more of the savory type C Am D And they weren't too keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie
[Chorus]
C G B7 Em D So Lemon Boy and me, we just gotta get along together C G B7 Em D I'll help him plant his seeds and we'll mow the lawn in bad weather C G B7 Em D C It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him D* G So, I got myself a citrus friend
[Bridge]
G B7 But what if I run out of fertiliser C Cm What if the clouds run out of rain C D G What if Lemon Boy won't grow no longer B7 C What if beaches dry of sugarcane Cm O-Oh well G Whales start to beach themselves B7 C Tortoise shells tear away from their spines Cm G It happens all the time, it happens all the time
[Pre-Chorus]
C G B7 Em D Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever C G B7 Em D Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever
[Chorus]
C G B7 Em D Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever C G B7 Em D Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever C G B7 Em D C It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
[Outro]
D C 'Cause we're the bitterest boys in town D C Yeah, we're the bitterest guys around D G And I got myself a citrus friend
