Intro:
|C Am  F G|C Am  F G|
|C Am  F G|C Am  F G|

Verse 1:
C                Am      F         G
When I first saw Yvonne, volcanoes erupted,
C                 Am            F
And her laughter flowed into my life.
G             C      G       C
She seemed so right, nothing wrong,
G          C         G      C
Everything about her was so strong.
                    Am       F   G
So I waited for the magic to start,
Am                  F          C   G
Somebody touched me deep in my heart.


Chorus 1:
C   Am       F             G        C
Yvonne's the one I've been dreaming on,
    Am          F
She said, "Hold on,
               G    C
You're not the only one.",
    Am   F             G     C
And so I said, "You're wrong Yvonne."

Verse 2:
C              Am           F           G
When I saw her again, I was caught in a landslide,
C            Am          F
But I didn't dare let it show.
G        C         G       C
Her ruby lips were teasing me,
G            C           G      C
But jealousy would never let us be.
                    Am       F   G
So I waited for the magic to start,
Am                    F       C   G
But I know it's gonna tear us apart.


Chorus 2:
C   Am       F             G        C
Yvonne's the one I've been dreaming on,
    Am          F
She said, "Hold on,
               G    C
You're not the only one.",
    Am   F             G     C
And so I said, "You're wrong Yvonne."

|(C) Am  F G| [Keyboard: Marimba Turnaround]


Bridge:
Am                    F      G
She'll never know how much I loved her,
Am             F    G
I never got to tell her.
Am               F             G   Am
We never had the chance to say farewell.

Verse 4:
C                Am
When I last saw Yvonne,
         F         G
She was covered in roses.
C                Am            F
But the laughter had gone from her eyes,
G             C     G             C
She walked so tall, she looked so grand.
G          C         G     C
Everything about her truly planned,
                     Am       F   G
But what you get, is not what you see.
Am               F          C       G
"So long Yvonne, you're not fooling me."


Chorus 3:
C   Am       F             G        C
Yvonne's the one I've been counting on,
    Am          F
She said, "Hold on,
               G    C
You're not the only one.",
    Am   F         G    C
And so I said, "So long Yvonne."

She said, "Hold on,
               G    C
You're not the only one.".

Notes:
1.  This was the last 10cc album, collaboratively produced in the UK and France.  Hence, 
the title.  (Graham) "Gouldman admitted the album was 'almost like two halves of an 
album', largely a result of the fact that he and Stewart began recording in separate countries."
2.  This is the first of two songs on that album in which Paul McCartney participated.
