[Verse] EG# There once was a bitter-sweet man and they called him Lemon Boy AF#mB He was growing in my garden and I pulled him out by his hair, like a weed EG# And like weeds do he only came and grew back again AF#mB So I figured this time I might as well let him be
[Chorus] AEG#F#mB Lemon Boy and me started to get along together AEG#F#mB I'll help him plant his seeds and we'd mow the lawn in bad weather AEG#F#mBA It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him BE So I got myself a citrus friend
[Verse] EG# But soon his bitter-sweet started to rub off on me AF#mB You'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat EG# I found out that my friends were more of the savory type AF#mB And they weren't too keen with compromising with a nice lemon pie
[Chorus] AEG#F#mB So Lemon Boy and me, we just got to get along together AEG#F#mB I helped him plant his seeds and we'd mow the lawn in bad weather AEG#F#mBA It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him BE So I got myself a citrus friend
[Bridge] EG# But what if I run out of fertilizer? AAm What if the clouds run out of rain? AE What if Lemon Boy won't grow no longer? G#AAm 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 AAm It happens all the time F#mBE It happens all the time
[Instrumental] EG#AAmF#mB
[Outro] AEG#F#mB Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever AEG#F#mB Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever AEG#F#mB Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever AEG#F#mB Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever AEG#F#mBA It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him BA Cause we're the bitterest boys in town BA Yeah we're the bitterest guys around BE and I've got myself a citrus friend
