On and On
Stephen Bishop (c) 1975

C    Am        C    Am
Down in Jamaica they got lots of pretty women
C     Am       Dm7    G7
Steal your money then they break your heart
C    Am      C       Am
Lonesome Sue, she's in love with ol' Sam
  Dm7        G7      C    Am
She take him from the fire into the fryin' pan

CHORUS:
 Dm7
 On and on
      F/G
 She just keeps on trying
C             A7     A7+
 And she smiles when she feels like crying
     Dm7    G7     C Am C Am
 On and on, on and on, on and on

C    Am     C      Am
Poor ol' Jimmy sits alone in the moonlight
C     Am       Dm7  G7
Saw his woman kiss another man
C   Am             C       Am
So he takes a ladder, steals the stars from the sky
Dm7    G7    C     Am
Puts on Sinatra and starts to cry
[repeat Chorus]

TAG:
       Dm7        Em7
  When the first time is the last time
      Dm7   F/G   C7
  It can make you feel so bad
        Dm7   Em7
  But if you know it, show it
  Am7   D7      Dm7       C   Am
  Hold on tight, don't let her say "Goodnight."

C    Am     C      Am
I got the sun on my shoulders and my toes in the sand
C     Am       Dm7  G7
My woman's left me for some other man
C   Am             C       Am
Ah, but I don't care -- I'll just dream and stay tanned
Dm7    G7    C     Am
Toss up my heart and see where it lands.
