Key:
D Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh …
F#m Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh …
Bm G Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh … (Verse)
D I got so excited
F#m When I saw you for the first time
Bm You fresh and inviting
G Perfectly enticing, yeah
D In the most distinctive hue
F#m Of crisp white linen kissed with blue
Bm All polished and sophisticated
G The finest specimen, oh, oh
A Where had you been
G I’d searched between the leaves to
A no avail
G I’d sat beneath the tress hoping
Bm the sky would send me
Em Something so delicious (Chorus)
D Like apples and onions
F#m Like whisky and wine
Bm Some are just born beautiful
G And some need time to
D Find out what they’re made of
Continues after the ad
F#m And where they belong
Bm G Like apples and onions (Verse)
D You won’t recognize me when
F#m You see what I’ve become
Bm From scrappy little fisherman
G To juicy little plum
D From knotted hair and bruised up knees
F#m To lips so sweet they’d make the bees
Bm Swarm around with jealousy
G You never saw this side of me
A Oh what hides beneath
G A Is not always as simple as it seems (Chorus)
D Like apples and onions
F#m Like whisky and wine
Bm Some are just born beautiful
G And some need time to
D Find out what they’re made of
F#m And where they belong
Bm G Like apples and onions
G What starts off intoxicating,
A Shiny and exhilarating
Bm After a while
D It gets a little bit tired and
G What at first seems dry and rough
A With skin so thick and shell so tough
Bm You work so hard to get inside
D And then you find something so delicious
D Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh …
F#m Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh … (Something so complex)
Bm G Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh … You didn’t know existed
D Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh …
F#m Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh … (You never saw, perfect)
Bm G Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh … Something so delicious
G A Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh
Bm D Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh
G A Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh (So find out what you’re made of, yeah)
Bm D Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh
