I'm hearing funny stories and they're far from being true

    G7                     C
But you know how talk gets around

                                      F
Those busy tongues are wagging saying I walked out on you

    G7                     C
But you know how talk gets around


  F              G7             C
I must admit our romance wasn't all that it should be

   D7                               G7
We tried to claim a love we'd never found

     C                              F
They say you're living reckless and they blame it on me

    G7                     C
But you know how talk gets around


                                      F
I hear you're glad we parted that you say and you don't care

    G7                     C
Now you know how talk gets around

                               F
They're telling everybody that I didn't treat you fair

    G7                     C
And you know how talk gets around


  F             G7                  C
I wish I wasn't quite so proud when I'm around with friends

     D7                       G7
Then I wouldn't feel so honor bound

    C                               F
I'd give the world to tell them how I'd love to make commands

    G7                     C
But you know how talk gets around
