Intro

Am Em Am Em Dm Em Am Em** Am*

Verse 1

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,
Dm Em Am Em** Am*
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

Verse 2

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
Dm Em Am Em** Am*
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

Chorus

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 another lemon tree. 

Interlude

Am Am Em Em Am Am Em Em Dm Dm Em Em Am Em** Am*
Dam dadoudi....

Verse 3

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 into bed,
Dm Em Am Em** Am*
Where nothing ever happens - and I wonder.

Bridge

Isolation - Is not good for me,
Isolation - I don't want to sit on a lemon tree.

Verse 4

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

Chorus

I wonder how, I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just another 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 the yellow lemon tree. 

Outro

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.
