Story Behind The Song
My old band Swami used to play this one out, it was a crowd favorite but we played it at Metallica speed. I always thought the song would have more power at a mid-tempo...and it does!

Lyrics
On and On
A-A-F-E
There are places that I go
That I don?t want you to know, about until tomorrow I
Fancy that you think it?s so,
Glamorous and lovely
That I, borrow just to get by,
F-G-A-A
And if you must know the truth
This is called my follow thru
C-C-E-E
On and on it goes
It never stops it
On and on it goes
It never stops it
A-A-F-E
There are things that I must do
That I can?t convey to you, not here and not now
Fancy that you think it?s so,
chic to act high
while you try your hand at living low
F-G-A-A
C-C-E-E
AA-EE-FF-GG
am I
bringin
up the
past I
need to
believe
I am
Alive
F-G-A-A
C-C-E-E
On and on it goes x6
ON!
