This is my first chord tab thing on here. I like the band a lot, but they're rather obscure; and since I
spent all of ten minutes figuring this out I grew a wild hair up my ass and decided to share what I 
think works. There are some lyrics I just can't figure out and I don't have a copy of the original LP 
or the 7" single, though I think you'll find >95% are accurate. So there it is, cheers.
-Mk Dross
Intro:  E   Ax2
EBack home from the tropics
AMan that was a (lone?) loEcationA  
EThey call that place romantic
AI didn't need no instigBation
ABut they tell the kinda story that keeps a young man on his
EToes, C#mOh yeah
BBut when Temptation waves a finger it
ATakes a better man to tell her EnoA  
       E   Ax1 
Well her poppa owned a business
Sellin' fruits and veggie-tables
Well the old man he was lonely
There was nobody to eat his apple
Well I was just about to make that sweet potato turn
Over, Oh yeah
But then her poppa hit me with a cabbage
Said I didn't (know??)
      E   Ax1
BOoooo, I C#mmiss that Mary AAnn-a
BOh, Aoh those sweet EbananasA  
      E   Ax1
Well I may be mistaken
There are some things that a man must do
No use in explainin'
I ain't sayin' anything new
But if everybody knows that one kiss leads to
Another, and it always will,
Then why is everyone so hard on all us lovers?
Ooooo, I miss that Marry Anne
Oh, oh those sweet bananas... (end with the E chord on the lyric "bananas")
