#1.
     E     F#m   G#m    F#m     
When I was but a little boy, my 
E      F#m     G#m
father said to me,
     E        F#m     G#m     A 
come here and learn a lesson, 
       E      B     E  E7
from the lovely lemon tree.
   A         Bm   C#m    Bm    
My son, it's most impor..tant, 
A         Bm      C#m
my father said to me,
   A        Bm       C#m      D 
to put your trust in what you 
        A      E        A
feel, and not in what you see.

CHORUS:
A     D                      
Lemon tree very pretty, and the 
                   A
lemon flower is sweet,
But the fruit of the poor lemon is 
    A7          D
im..possible to eat.
D                             
Lemon tree very pretty, and the 
                  A
lemon flower is sweet,
But the fruit of the poor lemon is 
    A7          D   B
im..possible to eat.

E            F#m   G#m      F#m
Beneath that lemon tree one 
     E        F#m   G#m
day, my love and I did lie,
  E       F#m        Ab    
A girl so sweet that when she 
   A           E        B      E  E7
smiled, the sun rose in the sky.
   A          Bm     C#m     Bm  
We spent that summer lost in 
  A            Bm    C#m
love, beneath that lemon tree..
    A     Bm     C#m      D      
the magic of her laughter hid my 
A        E          A
father's words from me.

CHORUS:
A     D                      
Lemon tree very pretty, and the 
                   A
lemon flower is sweet,
But the fruit of the poor lemon is 
    A7          D
im..possible to eat.

    E       F#m      G#m   F#m  
One day she left without a 
     E     F#m     G#m
word..she took away the sun.
    E      F#m      G#m    A     
And in the dark she left behind, 
  E         B       E
I knew what she had done.
    A       Bm      C#m   Bm    
She left me for an..other man, 
      A      Bm        C#m
it's a common tale, but true.
  A      Bm      C#m   D      A
A sadder man but wiser now, I 
          E        A
sing these words to you.

CHORUS:
A     D                      
Lemon tree very pretty, and the 
                   A
lemon flower is sweet,
But the fruit of the poor lemon is 
    A7          D
im..possible to eat.
