Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][C]

[Verse 1]
There [C]once was a bittersweet man
and they called him, "Lem[E]on Boy"
He was [F]growing in my garden and
I pulled him out by his [Dm]hair like a [G]weed
And [C]like weeds do he only came
and grew [E]back again
So, I [F]figured this time
I might as well let him [Dm]be[G]

[Chorus 1]
[F]Lemon Boy and [C]me started to
get a[E]long togeth[C]er[G]
I [F]helped him plant his [C]seeds
And we'd mow the [E]lawn in bad weath[Am]er
It's [F]actually pretty [C]easy
being [E]nice to a [Am]bitter [G]boy like [F]him
So, I got my[G]self a citrus [C]friend

[Verse 2]
But [C]soon his bittersweet started to
rub [E]off on me
You'd think [F]smelling like lemon zest
would [Dm]be pretty ne[G]at
I [C]found out that my friends
are more of the [E]savory type
And they [F]weren't too keen on
compromising with a [Dm]nice lemon [G]pie

[Chorus 2]
So [F]Lemon Boy and [C]me,
we just gotta get a[E]long togeth[C]er[G]
I [F]helped him plant his [C]seeds
And we'd mow the [E]lawn in bad weath[Am]er
It's [F]actually pretty [C]easy
being [E]nice to a [Am]bitter [G]boy like [F]him
So, I got my[G]self a citrus [C]friend

[Bridge 1]
But [C]what if I run out of fertil[E]izer?
[F]What if the clouds run out [Fm]of rain?
[F]What if Lemon Boy won't grow no [C]longer?
[E]What if beaches dry of sugar [F]cane?
[Fm]Oh well
The [C]whales start to beach themselves
[E]Tortoise shells tear away from [F]their spines
It happens all the [Fm]time, it [Am]happens [G]all the [C]time
[E][F]
[Fm][C][G]

[Chorus 3]
[F]Lemon Boy and [C]I,
we're gonna [E]live forev[C]er[G]
Like [F]Snufkin and Little [C]My,
we'll get a[E]round wherev[Dm]er[G]
[F]Lemon Boy and [C]I,
we're gonna [E]live forev[C]er[G]
Like [F]Snufkin and Little [C]My,
we'll get a[E]round wherev[Am]er
It's [F]actually pretty [C]easy
being [E]nice to a [Am]bitter [G]boy like [F]him
'Cause we're the [G]bitterest boys in [F]town
Yeah, we're the [G]bitterest guys a[F]round
And I got my[G]self a citrus [C]friend

[Outro 1]
