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."
|(C) Am F G| [Keyboard: Marimba Turnaround] 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.
Instrumental: [Lead over] |C Am F G|C Am F G| |C Am F G|C Am F G| 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."

C   Am       F             G        C
Yvonne's the one I've been counting on,

She said, "Hold on,

               G    C
You're not the only one.".

Yvonne's the one I've been counting on...
[End] 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.
