Words and music by Jesse Winchester (1977) Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town songbook [Verse 1]
  G                  D7
I live on a big blue ball

                    G
I never dream I may fall

                       D7
But even the day that I do,

                                G
I'll jump off and smile back at you.
[Verse 2]
                           D7
I don't even know where we are,

                                  G
But they tell us we're circling a star.

                                        D7
Well, I'll take their word, for I don't know,

                               G
But I'm dizzy, so maybe that's so.

    F#                C#7
I'm riding a big blue ball,

                       F#
I never dream I may fall.

                           C#7
But even the high must lay low,

                                  F#
So when I do fall I'll be glad to go.
