Lemon Tree
D A D A D
1. When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me,
A D A A7 D
"Come here and take a lesson from the lovely Lemon Tree."
G D G D G
"Don't put your faith in love, my boy", my father said to me,
e D G e C D G
"I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely Lemon Tree."
G7 C G
Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet,
G7 C
but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat.

Lemon Tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet,
G7 C
but the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat.

2. One day beneath the Lemon Tree, my love and I did lie,
A D A A7 D
a girl so sweet that when she smiled the stars rose in the sky.
G D G D G
We passed that summer lost in love, beneath the lemon tree,
e D G e C D G
the music of her laughter hid my father's words from me: + CHORUS
- A D A D A D
3. One day she left without a word, she took away the sun,
A D A A7 D
and in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done.
G D G D G
She'd left me for another, it's a common tale but true,
e D G e C D G
a sadder man but wiser now, I sing these words to you: + CHORUS
G C G C
Lemon tree, lemon tree.
