lyrics

G C
Summer days are almost here
G C
My malaise is almost clear
Em C Em
Happy times are round the corner
C F Em
You’re afraid that you’ll just bore her
C C7
But happy times are near
C C7 G
It’s limes and lemons dear
C G Am
And she climbs with fear of falling
C G Am
Summer days means life is calling
C C7
Your name, your name

C7 riff

CHORUS:
G C
Oh, when life gives you limes and lemons
G C
You make lemonade
G C
Oh when life sends you hells and heavens
G C
I’ll come to your aid
G C
Summer, winter, fall or springtime
G C
You’ll rest in my shade
G C
So when life gives you limes and lemons
G C
Let’s make lemonade
G C
Let’s make lemonade

C7 riff

G C
Summer days are almost gone
G C
In most ways you turn me on
Em C Em
Happy times will disappear
C F Em
Clouds arrive, and then they clear
C C7
‘Cause happy times return
C C7 G
It’s something you will learn
C G Am
And she climbs with fear of falling
C G Am
Summer’s gone and life’s still calling
C C7
Your name, your name

CHORUS

Em C7
It’s all limes and lemons
Em C7
It’s all hells and heavens
Am G
It’s all limes and lemons
Am G
Some will lose, and who wins?
Am G
Oh, you’ll win, oh, you’ll win

G C
Oh, when life gives you limes and lemons
G C
You make lemonade
G C
Oh when life sends you hells and heavens
G C
I’ll come to your aid
G C
Oh, you’re my sun, my moon, my starlight
G C
Yes, we’ve got it made
G C
So when life gives you limes and lemons
G C
Let’s make lemonade
G C
Let’s make lemonade
