[Verse]
 
             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.
             Dm                 Em
        I'm hanging around, I'm waiting for you,
             Dm            Em            Am     Em* Am°
        But nothing ever happens - and I wonder.
 
             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
             Dm                  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              Gbdim7                     G     G7
         And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.

[Verse]
 
              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.
          Dm                 Em
        I feel so tired, put myself to bed,
              Dm            Em            Am      Em* Am°
        Where nothing ever happens - and I wonder.
 
 
   E           Am
   Isolation - Is not good for me,
   G           C                       E
   Isolation - I don't want to sit on a lemon tree.
            Am                   Em
        I'm stepping around in a desert of joy
        Am                     Em
        Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
            Dm7                Em               Am     Em* Am°
        And everything will happen - and I will 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              Gbdim7                     G°    G7*
         And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.
               C*           G*
         And I wonder..., I wonder...
           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     G7             C
         And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.
