Say, its only a pa-per moon
Gb-7    B9     E   B7    E
Sailing over a cardboard sea
       Ab-7    Ab7  A      Gb-7
But it wouldn't be make-believe
   B7  Gb-7 B7     E   E?  Gb-7
If you believed in me


E         B?   Gb-7 B6 B9
Yes, it's only a can-vas sky
Gb-7    B9     E   B7  E
Hanging over a muslin tree
       Ab-7-5   Ab7  A     Gb-7
But it wouldn't be make-believe
    B7 Gb-7  B7     E
If you believed in me


   Gb-7 A-7  E7M

Without your love

It's a melody played in a penny arcade


E      B?       Gb-7 B6 B9
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Gb-7    B9        E  B7 E
Just as phony as it can be
       Ab-7-5   Ab7 B7     Gb-7
But it wouldn't be make-believe
