[Bb] [F] [Bb] [F] [Bb] [F] [Bb]
I was [Fm] just [Bb] a little [F] kid, my [Bb] father said [F] to [Bb] me
[F] Come [Bb] here and [F] take a [Bb] lesson from the [F] lovely lemon tree
[Eb] Put [Bb] your faith [Eb] in love, my boy, my father [Bb] said to [Eb] me
[Bb] I [Eb] fear you'll find that love is like the [Bb] lovely lemon tree
[F] The lemon [Bb] tree is [F] very [Bb] cheap [F] and the lemon [Gm] flower [C] is sweet
[Gm] But the fruit of the poor lemon [C] is [Gm] [F] impossible [Bb] to eat
[F] The lemon [Bb] tree [F] is very [Bb] cheap and the lemon [F] flower is [Gm] sweet
[C] But the fruit of the poor [Gm] lemon [C] is impossible [F] [Bb] to [F] eat
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] Beneath the [F] lemon tree [Bb] one day [F] my love and I [Bb] delight
Our girl so sweet that when she smiles [C] the stars [F] rose in the sky
[Dm] [Eb] Past the summer lost in [Bb] light [Eb] beneath the [Bb] lemon [Eb] tree
[Bb] The [Eb] music [Bb] of her laughter hid [Eb] my [F] father's words [Bb] from [F] me
The lemon [Bb] tree is [F] very [Bb] cheap [F] and the lemon [Bb] flower [Gm] is sweet
But the fruit [C] of the poor [Gm] lemon [C] is [Gm] [F] impossible [Bb] to eat
The lemon tree is very cheap and the lemon [C] flower [Bb] is sweet
[C] But [Bb] the fruit of [C] the poor [Gm] lemon is impossible [F] to [Bb] eat
One day she [F] left without a word, she took away [Bb] the sun
[F] And in the dark she left [Gm] behind, [C] I knew [F] what she had [Bb] done
[Eb] She left [Bb] me for [Eb] another, [Bb] it's [Eb] a common [Bb] tale but [Eb] true
[Bb] [Eb] Said a [Bb] tale but why insert [Eb] now, I sing this [Bb] song for [F] you
The lemon [Bb] tree is very cheap [F] and the [Bb] lemon [C] flower is [Gm] sweet
But the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible [Bb] to eat
The lemon tree is very cheap and the lemon [C] flower [Gm] is sweet
[C] But [Gm] the fruit of the poor lemon is [F] impossible [Bb] to eat
The lemon tree is very cheap and the lemon [C] flower is sweet
But [Gm] the fruit of [C] the Portland [Gm] is [C] impossible [Gm] [F] to [Bb] eat
