 C            G            F 


verse 1 
 C            G            F 
 I found your letter in my mailbox today  
 C            G            F 
 You were just checkin' if I was okay 
 C            G            F 
   And if I miss you, well, you know what they say 


Chorus 
      F    G       C    B    Am          
 Just once ... in a very blue moon  
      F        G         C 
 Just once in a very blue moon 
      F     G       Em        Am           
 Just once ... in a very blue moon  
      F        G         C 
And I feel one comin' on soon 

  
verse 2 
 C            G            F 
 No need to tell me, you'd like to be friends 
 C            G            F 
 And help me get back on my feet again 
 C            G            F 
   And if I miss you, well, it's just now and then 


Chorus 
      F    G       C    B    Am          
 Just once ... in a very blue moon  
      F        G         C 
 Just once in a very blue moon 
      F     G       Em        Am           
 Just once ... in a very blue moon  
      F        G         C 
And I feel one comin' on soon 
  


BRIDGE 
           F         Em   C 
 There's a blue moon shinin' 
      F      G         F              C  
 When I am reminded of all we've been through 
        F         Em   C  
 Such a blue moon shinin'  
         F                  G  
 Does it ever shine down on you? 

  

verse 3 

 C            G            F 
 You act as if it never hurt you at all 
 C            G            F 
 Like I'm the only one who's gettin' up from a fall 
 C            G            F 
 Don't you remember? Can't you recall? 


Chorus 
      F    G       C    B    Am          
 Just once ... in a very blue moon  
      F        G         C 
 Just once in a very blue moon 
      F     G       Em        Am           
 Just once ... in a very blue moon  
      F        G         C 
And I feel one comin' on soon 
      F        G         C 
 Just once in a very blue moon
