VERSE:
      G              D
When everything you own
      G                  D
Will fit in a paper sack

     G                D
You live in a rented room
      G                 D
Your money run out too soon
        G
You've pawned all your hopes
 D
Bummed all your smokes
          G                   D
And you leave by the quarter moon


CHORUS:
  F                      Em
Quarter moon better than none
           G         Dm    D
When you travel the night road
  F                       Em
Quarter moon better than none
