Verse 1
D5            G5     C5             D5
Now when the rumor comes to your town
B5           F#5             B5      F#5    G5     A5
It grows and grows, where it started no one knows
D5            G5         C5                    D5
Some of your neighbors will invite it right in
B5           F#5  B5            F#5
Maybe it's a lie, even if it's a sin
        G5          A5     D5
They'll repeat the rumor again


Chorus
G5         G5     E5   A5         D5
Close your eyes, hang down your head
G5         A5         D5     D5
Until the fog blows away, let it roll away
G5           G5    E5  A5        D5
Open up your arms and feel the good
G5      A5       A5          D5   F5  G5  A5  D5  F5  G5  A5
It's a-comin', a brand new day, hmm hmm


Verse
D5          G5    C5                D5
Big men, little men turned into dust
B5         F#5           B5             F#5       G5      A5
Maybe it was all in fun, they didn't mean to ruin no one
D5          G5                C5                    D5                     
Could there be someone, someone here among this crowd
B5                F#5   B5             F#5
Who's been accused, had his name so misused
       G5            A5     D5
And his privacy refused?


Chorus

G5         G5     E5   A5         D5
Close your eyes, hang down your head
G5         A5         D5     D5
Until the fog blows away, let it roll away
G5           G5    E5  A5        D5
Open up your arms and feel the good
G5      A5       A5          D5   F5  G5  A5  D5  F5  G5  A5
It's a-comin', a brand new day, hmm hmm



Verse
D5                G5          C5          D5
Now all you vigilantes wanna make a move
B5              F#5     B5             F#5   G5   A5
Maybe they won't, you know I sure hope they don't
D5           G5        C5                    D5
For whether this rumor proves true or false
B5          F#5    B5           F#5
You can forgive or you can regret
   G5          A5             D5
But he will never ever forget


Chorus
G5         G5     E5   A5         D5
Close your eyes, hang down your head
G5         A5         D5     D5
Until the fog blows away, let it roll away
G5           G5    E5  A5        D5
Open up your arms and feel the good
G5      A5       A5          D5   F5  G5  A5  D5  F5  G5  A5
It's a-comin', a brand new day, hmm hmm
