On and On – By Stephen Bishop
Tabbed by Zack Feldman
The other tabs on here seemed off, at least in the wrong key. I fixed a few parts.
Please rate it so I can use the feedback!
B G#m7 x4
B G#m7 B G#m7
Down in Jamaica they got lots of pretty women
B G#m7 E F#sus4
Steal your money then they break your heart
B G#m7 B G#m7
Lonesome Sue, she's in love with ol' Sam
E C#m7 B G#m7
She take him from the fire into the fryin' pan
CHORUS:
E
On and on
D#m F#
She just keeps on trying
B G#m7 C#m
And she smiles when she feels like crying
E F#7 C#m B G#m7
On and on, on and on, on and on
B G#m7
B G#m7 B G#m7
Poor ol' Jimmy sits alone in the moonlight
B G#m7 E F#sus4
Saw his woman kiss another man
B G#m7 B G#m7
So he takes a ladder, steals the stars from the sky
E C#m7 B G#m7
Puts on Sinatra and starts to cry

Well, my first time is the last time

But if you know it, show it

Hold on tight, don't let her say "Goodnight."
B G#m x2
B G#m7 B G#m7
I got the sun on my shoulders and my toes in the sand
B G#m7 E F#sus4
My woman's left me for some other man
B G#m7 B G#m7
Ah, but I don't care -- I'll just dream and stay tanned
E C#m7 B G#m7
Toss up my heart and see where it lands.
