Lemon Tree

Fool's Garden


                            

                    
I'm sitting here in a boring room,
                             
It's just another rainy sunday afternoon.
                   
I'm wasting my time, I got nothing to do.
                    
I'm hanging around, I'm waiting for you,
                                  
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.


I'm driving around in my car,
I'm driving too fast, I'm driving too far.
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely, I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.


              
I wonder how, I wonder why
                              
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
                                              
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.
                  
I'm turning my head up and down,
                                  
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
                 D7dim                            
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.


                            
Dam     dadoudi....


I'm sitting here, I miss the power.
I'd like to go out, taking a shower,
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head.
I feel so tired, put myself to bed,
Where nothing ever happens - and I wonder.


           
Isolation - Is not good for me,
                                 
Isolation - I don't want to sit on a lemon tree.
                       
I'm steppin? around in a desert of joy
                     
Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
                                         
And everything will happen - and I will wonder.


I wonder how, I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.
I'm turning my head up and down,
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree. And I
wonder..., I wonder...
I wonder how, I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
                                     
And all that I can see, And all that I can see,
                                 
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.

There's already an archive for it from Enrico Angella
 ( I've put it at the end of my transcription),
but what he wrote doesn't sound to me like the song.
Here's the easiest way to play it. The rignt tune is with capo up to
the first fret.
