Heard it from a friend who 
C5    
Heard it from a friend who 
D5                                      G5 
Heard it from another you been messin' around 
G5                              
They say you got a boy friend 
C5 
You're out late every weekend 
D5                                           G5 
They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down  
G5 
But I know the neighborhood 
C5 
And talk is cheap when the story is good 
D5                                     G5 
And the tales grow taller on down the line 
G5              
But I'm telling you, babe 
C5 
That I don't think it's true, babe 
D5                              G5 
And even if it is keep this in mind  
 
{Refrain}  
E5 
You take it on the run baby 
C5 
If that's the way you want it baby 
D5                     G5 
Then I don't want you around 
E5 
I don't believe it 
C5 
Not for a minute 
A5                                         D5 
You're under the gun so you take it on the run  
G5 
You're thinking up your white lies 
C5 
You're putting on your bedroom eyes 
D5                                            G5 
You say you're coming home but you won't say when 
G5              
But I can feel it coming 
C5 
If you leave tonight keep running 
D5                            G5 
And you need never look back again
