This is the chords of Lemon Boy Live At Hoxton Hall by cavetown on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
D F#7
There once was a bittersweet man and they called him, \”Lemon Boy\”
G7 Em A7
He was growing in my garden and I pulled him out by his hair like a weed
D F#7
And like weeds do he only came and grew back again
G7 Em A7
So, I figured this time I might as well let him be
[Chorus]
G7 D F#7 Em A7
Lemon Boy and me started to get along together
G7 D F#7 Em A7
I helped him plant his seeds and we\’d mow the lawn in bad weather
G7 D F#7 Em A7 G7
It\’s actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
A7
So I got myself a citrus friend

[Verse 2]
D F#7
But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on me
G7 Em A7
You\’d think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat
D F#7
I found out that my friends are more of the savoury type
G7 Em A7
And they weren\’t too keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie
[Chorus]
G7 D F#7 Em A7
So Lemon Boy and me, we just gotta get along together
G7 D F#7 Em A7
I\’ll help him plant his seeds and we\’ll mow the lawn in bad weather
G7 D F#7 Em A7 G7
It\’s actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
A7 D
So, I got myself a citrus friend
[Bridge]
D F#
But what if I run out of fertilizer
G Gm
What if the clouds run out of rain
G D
What if Lemon Boy won\’t grow no longer
F# G
What if the beaches dry of sugarcane
Gm
Oh well
D
The whales start to beach themselves
F# G
The tortoise shells tear away from their spines
Gm Em A7 D
It happens all the time, it happens all the time
F# G Gm Em A7
[Pre-Chorus]
G7 D F#7 Em A7
Lemon Boy and I, were gonna live forever
G7 D F#7 Em A7
Like Snufkin and Little My, we\’ll get around wherever
[Chorus]
G7 D F#7 Em A7
Lemon Boy and I, were gonna live forever
G7 D F#7 Em A7
Like Snufkin and Little My, we\’ll get around wherever
G7 D F#7 Em A7 G7
It\’s actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
[Outro]
A7 G7
\’Cause we\’re the bitterest boys in town
A7 G7
Yeah, we\’re the bitterest guys around
A7 D
And I got myself a citrus friend
