Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town songbook

[Verse 1]
G D7
I live on a big blue ball
G
I never dream I may fall
D7
But even the day that I do,
G
I'll jump off and smile back at you.

[Verse 2]
D7
I don't even know where we are,
G
But they tell us we're circling a star.
D7
Well, I'll take their word, for I don't know,
G
But I'm dizzy, so maybe that's so.

[Instrumental verse]
G D7 G D7 G B7

[Instrumental bridge]
E B7 E7 E C#7

[Verse 3]
F# C#7
I'm riding a big blue ball,
F#
I never dream I may fall.
C#7
But even the high must lay low,
F#
So when I do fall I'll be glad to go.
