On And On

by Stephen Bishop

Down in Ja-mai-ca
8 8 6 7 7
they got lots of pret-ty wom-en
-6 6 8 6 7 7 -6 6
Steal your mon-ey
8 6 7 7
then they break your heart
-6 6 -8 -6 6
Lone-some Sue
8 -6 7
She’s in love with ol’ Sam
-6 6 8 -9 9 7
Take him from the fire
8 -6 7 -6 7
In-to the fry-ing pan
7 -6 6 7 -6 7

On and on
8 -9 -8
She just keeps on try-ing
7 -6 8 -8 7 -66
and she smiles
8 -8 8
when she feels like cry-ing
8 -8 8 8 -9 9
On and on On and on
8 -9 -8 8 -9 -8
On and On
8-87-6 -6 7

Poor ol’ Jim-my
8 6 7 7
Sits a-lone in the moon-light
-6 6 8 6 7 7 -6 6
Saw his wom-an kiss an-oth-er man
8 8 7 7 -6 6 -8 -6 6
So he takes a lad-der
8 8 8 -6 7 7
Steals the stars from the sky
-6 6 8 -9 9 7
Puts on Si-na-tra
-6 7 -6 7 7
and starts to cry
-66 7 -6 7
On and on On and on
8 -9 -8 8 -9 -8
On and On
8-87-6 -6 7

CHORUS

When the first time
7 7 9 9
is the last time
7 7 9 9
It can make you feel so bad
7 7 9 8 7 -6 6
But if you know it
7 7 7 9 9
Show it Hold on tight
9 9 8 9 8 7
Don’t let her say, “Good- night”
7 -6 7 -8 8 -99-10 10

Got the sun on my shoul-ders
-6 7 8 8 6 7 7
and my toes in the sand
-6 6 8 6 7 7-6 6
Wom-an’s left me for some oth-er man
8 6 7 7 -6 6 -8 -6 6
Aw, but I don’t care
-6 6 8 -6 7
I’ll just dream and stay tan
-6 6 8 -9 9 7
Toss up my heart
-6 7 -6 7
to see where it lands
-6 6 7 -6 7

On and on
8 -9 -8
I just keeps on try-ing
7 -6 8 -8 7 -66
and I smile
8 -8 8
when I feel like cry-ing
8 -8 8 8 -9 9
On and on On and on
8 -9 -8 8 -9 -8
On and On
8-87-6 -6 7

I like it on a 14 holer or a low C
