VERSE:
      G              D
When everything you own
      G                  D
Will fit in a paper sack
    G                  D
And no one notice you leavin'
        G                       D
Nobody ask you when you comin' back


VERSE:
     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
          G       Dm    D   D  G  D
When you carry a light load


VERSE:
     G            D
And every bowery bum 
              G                     D  
You know was somebody's mothers son
    G                  D
He never mean to hurt nobody 
         G                   D
Just a-drinkin' to have his fun


VERSE:
  G                      D
Drinkin' away the good times
  G                D
Drinkin' away the bad
     G                   D          
And nobody know where a poor man go
         G                       D
When he lose everything that he had


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


BREAK:
 Am7              Em7
Every man in the mission tonight
     D
Is dreamin' whiskey shadows
       Am                   C         Em
Where heaven is lined with bottles of wine
     D               D      Am7   C   D G D   D G D
And deep sparkling meadooooooows


VERSE:
      G              D
When everything you own
      G                 D
Will fit in a paper sack
G                  D
No one notice you leavin'
        G                        D
Nobody ask you when you comin' back baby


VERSE:
     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
          G       Dm    D   
When you carry a light load


OUTRO:
  F                       Em
Quarter moon better than none
  Dm                      Em   Am
Quarter moon better than nooooooone
  F                      Em7
Quarter moon better than none
                    Fmaj7  Dm   D G D  D G D  Am7 C D7 D
When you travel the night road
