                        It's Not On    (Justin Hayward)
[capo 1st fret]

      A  D  /  /  /  A  /  /  D  /  /  E  /  /  /
     [                                             ]  x2

        A                Abm      C#7
     Beyond the tears, behind her eyes

          F#m              Bm     C#7
     She feels the need to rationalise

          D                      A                  Bm      D      A
     To catch the thought that can't be caught and hold it for a while

        A                Abm      C#7
     Beyond the fears, behind her lies

         F#m                 Bm        C#7
     She sees the truth but still she tries

         D                A                  Bm      D      A
     To hold on fast to dreams that last no longer than a smile

      A    D  Em7      G        A       D            C#      F#m
     It's not on, too much has come between us, too much has gone

         D                 A     E                     A
     And in our hearts we both know that it's just not on

      A  D  Em7  /  /  /  G  /  A  /  D  /  /
     Aaaah.....          aah   aah   aah

          C#        F#m
     The feeling's gone

         D                 A     E                     A
     And in our hearts we both know that it's just not on

      A  D  /  /  /  A  /  /  D  /  /  E  /  /  /
     [                                             ]  x2

           A           Abm       C#7
     It's funny how as time goes by

          F#m                 Bm     C#7
     Some feelings grow while others die

          D             A             Bm        D        A
     But who are we to disagree with what our hearts dictate

          A             Abm    C#7
     And only fools who dare ignore

         F#m              Bm      C#7
     The empty hours that lie in store

           D                  A              Bm     D        A
     For those who strive to keep alive too little love too late

      A    D  Em7      G        A       D            C#      F#m
     It's not on, too much has come between us, too much has gone

         D                 A     E                     A
     And in our hearts we both know that it's just not on

      A  D  Em7  /  /  /  G  /  A  /  D  /  /
     Aaaah.....          aah   aah   aah

          C#        F#m
     The feeling's gone

         D                 A     E                     A
     And in our hearts we both know that it's just not on

      A  D  /  /  /  A  /  /  D  /  /  E  /  /  /

                      A  D  /  /  /  A  /  /  D  /  /  E
     No it's just not on
