Verse:
E G#
There once was a bitter-sweet man and they called him Lemon Boy
A F#m B
He was growing in my garden and I pulled him out by his hair, like a weed
E G#
And like weeds do he only came and grew back again
A F#m B
So I figured this time I might as well let him be
🎸

Chorus:
A E G# F#m B
Lemon Boy and me started to get along together
A E G# F#m B
I'll help him plant his seeds and we'd mow the lawn in bad weather
A E G# F#m B A
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
B E
So I got myself a citrus friend
Verse:
E G#
But soon his bitter-sweet started to rub off on me
A F#m B
You'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat
E G#
I found out that my friends were more of the savory type
A F#m B
And they weren't too keen with compromising with a nice lemon pie
Chorus:
A E G# F#m B
So Lemon Boy and me, we just got to get along together
A E G# F#m B
I helped him plant his seeds and we'd mow the lawn in bad weather
A E G# F#m B A
It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
B E
So I got myself a citrus friend
Bridge:
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
A Am
It happens all the time
F#m B E
It happens all the time
Instrumental:
E G# A Am F#m B
Outro:
A E G# F#m B
Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever
A E G# F#m B
Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever
A E G# F#m B
Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever
A E G# F#m B
Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever
A E G# F#m B A
It's actually pretty easy being nice 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
