Apples And Onions Chords

(ver. 1)
Jess Penner
(Introduction)
D
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?
F#m
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?
Bm               G
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?

(Verse)
D
I got so excited
       F#m
When I saw you for the first time
    Bm
You fresh and inviting
G
Perfectly enticing, yeah

D
In the most distinctive hue
   F#m
Of crisp white linen kissed with blue 
    Bm
All polished and sophisticated
    G
The finest specimen, oh, oh
              A
Where had you been
    G                                  A
I'd searched between the leaves to no avail
    G                                Bm
I'd sat beneath the tress hoping the sky would send me
Em
Something so delicious 

(Chorus)
     D
Like apples and onions
     F#m
Like whisky and wine
Bm
Some are just born beautiful
    G
And some need time to
D
Find out what they're made of
    F#m
And where they belong
     Bm               G
Like apples and onions

(Verse)
D
You won't recognize me when 
    F#m
You see what I've become
     Bm
From scr*ppy little fisherman
   G
To juicy little plum
     D
From knotted hair and bruised up knees
   F#m
To lips so sweet they'd make the bees 
Bm
Swarm around with jealousy
    G
You never saw this side of me
                A
Oh what hides beneath
   G                           A
Is not always as simple as it seems

(Chorus)
     D
Like apples and onions
     F#m
Like whisky and wine
Bm
Some are just born beautiful
    G
And some need time to
D
Find out what they're made of
    F#m
And where they belong
     Bm               G
Like apples and onions

G
What starts off intoxicating, 
A
Shiny and exhilarating
Bm
After a while
          D
It gets a little bit tired and
G
What at first seems dry and rough 
     A
With skin so thick and shell so tough 
    Bm
You work so hard to get inside
    D
And then you find something so delicious


D
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?
F#m
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?
              (Something so complex)
Bm               G
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?   You didn't know existed

D
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?
F#m
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?
              (You never saw, perfect) 
Bm               G
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh ?   Something so delicious

G           A
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh
Bm          D
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh
    G           A
    Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh
(So find out what you're made of, yeah)
Bm          D
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh
