C                                     F 
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
