	        Bb       Dm7    Cm7    
Say it's only a paper moon 
D#             Bb 
Sailing over a cardboard sea 
Bb                 D# 
But it wouldn't be make-believe 
   Cm7 Dm7         Bb 
If you believed in me 
Bb        Dm7    Cm7 
Yes, it's only a canvas sky 
D#             Bb 
Hanging over a muslin tree 
Bb                 D# 
But it wouldn't be make-believe 
   Cm7 Dm7         Bb 
If you believed in me 

    Cm7 C#m7 Dm7 
Without your love 
       D#    Dm7    Bb 
It's a honky-tonk parade 
   Cm7  C#m7 Dm7 
Without your love 
       D#                 D#m7 
It's a melody played in a penny arcade 

Bb     Dm7        Cm7 
It's a barnum and bailey world 
D#               Bb 
Just as phony as it can be 
Bb                 D# 
But it wouldn't be make-believe 
   Cm7 Dm7         Bb 
If you believed in me
