Original key is Fm but tuned a bit sharp.
Except the chords marked *, each chord is preceded by the lowest string of the
chord. Example: the chord Em is played as this: the lowest string (E) is played,
and the 5 other are played after; the E string, and the 5 others again. As this,
each chord is played twice! The chords marked ** are played once.

[Intro]
Am Em Am Em Dm Em Am  Em**  Am*

[Verse 1]
    Am                Em          
I'm sitting here in a boring room,
     Am                        Em        
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon.
    Am                     Em            
I'm wasting my time, I got nothing to do.
    Am                  Em              
I'm hanging around, I'm waiting for you,
    Dm           Em              Am     Em Am
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

[Verse 2]
    Am               Em        
I'm driving around - in my car,
    Am                    Em              
I'm driving too fast, I'm driving too far.
    Am                Em           
I'd like to change my point of view
  Am                  Em             
I feel so lonely, I'm waiting for you
    Dm           Em              Am     Em Am
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

[Chorus]
  C             G         
I wonder how, I wonder why
Am                              Em           
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    F              G                    C          G7
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.
    C                 G           
I'm turning my head - up and down,
    Am                              Em            
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
    F              F#dim7              G          G7
And all that I can see is just another lemon tree.

[Interlude]
Am  Am  Em  Em  Am Am Em Em Dm Dm Em Em Am Em Am
Dam     dadoudi....

[Verse 3]
    Am              Em             
I'm sitting here, I miss the power.
    Am                 Em           
I'd like to go out, taking a shower,
    Am                    Em             
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head.
  Am                   Em            
I feel so tired, put myself into bed,
      Dm           Em              Am     Em Am
Where nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

[Bridge]
E           Am                 
Isolation - Is not good for me,
G           C               E                   
Isolation - I don't want to sit on a lemon tree.

[Verse 4]
    Am                   Em           
I'm stepping around in a desert of joy
Am                    Em         
Baby, anyhow I'll get another toy
    Dm              Em               Am     Em Am
And everything will happen - and you wonder.

[Chorus]
  C             G         
I wonder how, I wonder why
Am                              Em           
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    F              G                   C          G7
And all that I can see is just another lemon tree.
    C                 G           
I'm turning my head - up and down,
    Am                              Em            
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
    F              F#dim7                 G          G7
And all that I can see is just the yellow lemon tree.

[Outro]
  C             G         
I wonder how, I wonder why
Am                              Em           
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
    F              G        F              G   
And all that I can see, and all that I can see,
    F              G                    C          
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.
