{title:Lemon Tree}
{st:Will Holt}
When DI was A7just a Dlad of ten, my father A7said to Dme,
"Come here and A7take a Dlesson from the A7lovely lemon Dtree."
"Don't Gput your D7faith in Glove, my boy," my father D7said to Gme,
"I fear you'll D7find that Glove is like the lovely D7lemon Gtree."

{c:Chorus:}
     Lemon Dtree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is A7sweet,
     But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to Deat.
     Lemon Dtree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is A7sweet,
     But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to Deat.

One day beneath the lemon tree, my love and I did lie,
A girl so sweet that when she smiled, the stars rose in the sky.
We passed that summer lost in love, beneath the lemon tree,
The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me.

     {c:Chorus.}

One day she left without a word, she took away the sun.
And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done.
She left me for another, it's a common tale but true,
A sadder man, but wiser now, I sing these words to you.

     {c:Chorus.}
