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 
 
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
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 Instrumental E A F#m B E A F#m B E Solo
