Lemons by Roger Clyne
Lemons
Intro
A D x4
Verse 1
A D
I'm sailing the seas of red wine
A D
I'm strumming this nonsense tune
A D
Add my voice to a rebel serenade
A D
Echoin' off a waxin' moon
[intro x2]
Verse 2
A D
And I've crumpled our paper captain
A D
Now who will lead this swarthy crew?
A D
Tear the teeth off the gears, keep 'em as souvenirs, boys!
A D
The world needs a few good mutineers now
Chours
D A E
Sometimes I slumber on a bed of roses
E A D
Sometimes I crash in the weeds
D A E
One day a bowl full of cherries
E (cut silent)
One night I'm suckin' on lemons and spittin' out the seeds
[repeat intro]
Verse 3
A D
I am the fat, native, skinny-dippin', semi-professional tourist
A D
A gold watch at the bottom of the sea
A D
Tis time I depose of those petty tyrants
A D
One on the throne, one inside me
[chorus]
[repeat intro]
Verse 4
A D
Bring on the change. Let's keep it simple now
A D
Don't confuse your wants with your needs
A D
Believe in love (love!), forsake your greed
A D
And give away what you want to receive
"what you say?"
A D
Give away what you want to receive
"what you say?"
A D
Give away what you want to receive
"what you say?"
A D
Give away what you want to receive
[chorus x2]
