Cavetown - Lemon Boy: Guitar Chords

E
There once was a bitter-sweet man
                     G#
and they called him Lemon Boy
         A
He was growing in my garden and
                        F#m           B
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#     C#m   B
Lemon Boy and me started to get along together
   A                    E
I helped him plant his seeds and we'd mow
     G#          C#m  B
the lawn in bad weather
     A               E          G#
It's actually pretty easy being nice to
   C#m    B        A
a bitter boy like him
            B              E
So I got myself a citrus friend

But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on me
You'd think smelling like lemon zest would
be pretty neat
I found out that my friends are more of
the savoury type
And they weren't too keen on compromising
with a nice lemon pie

Chorus:
So Lemon Boy and me, we just gotta
get along together
I'll help him plant his seeds and
we'll mow the lawn in bad weather
It's actually pretty easy being nice
to a bitter boy like him
So I got myself a citrus friend

      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
   C#m     B        E
It happens all the time

Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever
Like Snufkin and Little My,
we'll get around wherever

Chorus:
Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever
Like Snufkin and Little My,
we'll get around wherever
It's actually pretty easy being nice to
a bitter boy like him

'Cause we're the bitterest boys in town
Yeah, we're the bitterest guys around
And I got myself a citrus friend
