Verse 1
[Gmaj7] [G#dim7] [Am7] [D7]
It is only a paper moon
[Am7] [D7] [Gmaj7]
Sailing over a cardboard sea,
[G] [C6] [Am7]
But it wouldn't be make believe
[D7] [D7/A] [Gmaj7] [D7] [Gmaj7]
If you believed in me.
Verse 2
[Gmaj7] [G#dim7] [Am7] [D7]
Say it is only a canvas sky
[Am7] [D7] [Gmaj7]
Hanging over a muslin tree,
[G] [C6] [Am7]
But it wouldn't be make believe
[D7] [D7/A] [G13] [G7+5]
If you believed in me.
Chorus
[C6] [C#dim7] [G7] [E7]
Without your love,
[Am7] [D7] [G13] [G7+5]
It's a honky-tonk parade.
[C6] [C#dim7] [G7] [E7]
Without your love,
[Bm7] [E7] [Am7] [D7(b9)] [Gmaj7]
It's a melody played in a penny arcade.
Verse 3
[G#dim7] [Am7] [D7]
It's a barnum and bailey world,
[Am7] [D7] [Gmaj7]
Just as phony as it can be,
[G] [C6] [Am7]
But it wouldn't be make believe
[D7] [D7/A] [G13] [G7+5]
If you believed in me.
[Gmaj7] [G] [C6] [Am7]
But it wouldn't be make believe
[D7] [G#9] [Gmaj7]
If you believed in me.
