[D]
[C] [D]
There once was a bittersweet man and they called him [F#] Lemon Boy.
He [G] was growing in my garden and I pulled him out [Em] by his hair [A] like a weed.
[D] And like weeds do, he only came and grew [F#] back again.
So [G] I figured this time I might as well [Em] let him be.
[F#m] [Am] [G] Lemon Boy [D] and me started to [F#] get along [E] together.
[A] [G] I helped him plant his [D] seeds and we'd mow [F#] the lawn in bad [E] weather.
[G] It's [D] actually pretty easy being [F#] nice [C#m] to [Em] a bitter [D] boy like [G] him.
So I got [A] myself a [G] citrus friend.

But soon his bittersweet started [F#] to rub off on me.
[G] You'd think smelling like lemon zest [Em] would be pretty [A] neat.
[D] I found out that my friends were more [F#] of the savory type.
[G] And they weren't too keen on [E] compromising with a nice lemon [A] pie.
[G] So Lemon Boy [D] and me, we just gotta [C#m] get along [E] together.
[A] [G] I'll help him [A] plant [D] his seeds and we'll mow [F#] the lawn in [E] bad [Bm] weather.
[G] It's actually [D] pretty easy being [F#]
nice to [E] a [Bm] bitter [A] boy [G] like him.
So I [E] got [A] myself a [D] citrus friend.
But what if I ran out of [F#]
fertilizer?
[G]
What if the clouds ran out of [Gm] rain?
[G]
What if Lemon Boy won't grow no [D] longer?
[F#] What if beaches dry of [G] sugar cane?
[Gm] Oh well.
[D] The whales start to beach themselves.
[F#] Tortoise shells tear away [G] from their spines.
It happens all the [Gm]
time.
It [Em] happens [Am] [D] all the time.

So [G] Lemon Boy [D] and I, [F#] we're gonna live [E]

[G] Like Snufkin and [D] Little Mike, we'll [F#] get around
[E] wherever.
