Stephen Bishop (c) 1975

Tune down 1/2 step

A7b13  x02021


[Verse]

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
           G
  She just keeps on trying
C                         A7         A7b13
  And she smiles when she feels like crying
         Dm7        G7         C Am C Am
  On and on, on and on, on and on


[Verse]

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


[Chorus]

         Dm7
  On and on
          G
  He just keeps on trying
C                       A7         A7b13
  And he smiles when he feels like crying
         Dm7        G7         C Am C Am
  On and on, on and on, on and on


[Bridge]

         Dm7               Em7
When the first time is the last time
       Dm7      F/G     C
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."


[Verse]

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.


[Chorus]

            Dm7
  On and on
         G
  I just keep on trying
C                    A7        A7b13
  And I smile when I feel like dying
         Dm7        G7         C Am C Am
  On and on, on and on, on and on
         Dm7        G7         C Am C Am
  On and on, on and on, on and on
         Dm7        G7         C Am C Am
  On and on, on and on, on and on
