Standard (EADGBE)

Nine times out of ten, she's right when I am wrong,

When I won't give in, she just goes along.

Standing by my side, sittin' home alone,

I'll never know what keeps her hangin' on,

When anybody else would be long gone.

But once in a blue moon,

I'll do something right.

And once in a blue moon,

I'll make her feel so fine.

I can make her laugh and make her cry,

She hates the way she loves me sometimes,

But once in a blue moon, I'll do something right.

Instrumental

She's starving for affection, so hungry for loves touch,

But she only hears 'I love you' when we're making love.

Lord, I'll always wonder why she loves me so much,

When the best I'll ever do won't be enough,

So I'll just thank my lucky stars above.

That once in a blue moon,

I'll do something right.

And once in a blue moon,

I'll make her feel so fine.

'Cause I can make her laugh, oh and make her cry,

She hates the way she loves me sometimes.

Once in a blue moon, once in a blue moon,

Every once in a blue moon, I'll do something right.

Once in a blue moon.
