About: Hey there, thanks for checking out my lime tree tab!
This is the first song I have ever tabbed out so I'm hoping it helps you more than
frustrates you =P.
The Lime Tree should be easy enough for beginners to learn and fun enough for pros to play.
This is one of my favorite songs and I hope it becomes one of yours as well! If you have
any questions or see any errors feel free to email me.
Until then, have fun!

It took a while for you to find me
Am E
But I was hiding in the lime tree

Above the city in the rain cloud
Am E
I poked a hole and watched it drain out

To let them know that the stars well they still shine
