Tom: Am
Am Em Am Em
How do rumors get started, they're started by the jealous people and
Am G F G
They get mad seein' somethin' they had and somebody else is holdin'
Am Em Am Em
Tell me that temptation is very hard to resist
Am G F G
But these wicked women, ooh, they just persist
Am Em Am Em
Maybe you think it's cute, but girl, I'm not impressed
Am G F G
I tell you one time only with my business please don't mess
[Chorus]
Am Em Am Em
Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
Am G F G
I just need some time, some time to get away from
Am Em Am Em
From all these rumors, I can't take it no more
F G
My best friend said there's one out now about me and the girl next door
[Verse 2]
Am Em Am Em
Hear the one about Tina, some say she's much too loose
Am G F G
That came straight from a guy who claims he's tastin' her juice
Am Em Am Em
Hear the one about Michael, some say he must be gay
Am G F G
I try to argue, but they said if he was straight he wouldn't move that way
Am Em Am Em
Hear the one about Susan, some say she's just a tease
Am G F G
In a camisole she's six feet tall, she'll knock you to you knees
[Chorus]
Am Em Am Em
Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
Am G F G
I just need some time, some time to get away from
Am Em Am Em
From all these rumors, I can't take it no more

[Verse 3]
Am Em Am Em
I can't go no place without somebody pointin' a finger
Am G F G
I can't show my face cause when it comes to rumors I'm a dead ringer
Am Em Am Em
It seems from rumors I just can't get away
Am G F G
I bet there'll even be rumors floatin' around on Judgment Day
Am Em Am Em
I'll think I'll write my congressman and tell him to pass a bill
Am G F G
For the next time they catch somebody startin' rumors, shoot to kill
[Chorus]
Am Em Am Em
Look at all these rumors surroundin' me every day
Am G F G
I just need some time, some time to get away from
Am Em Am Em
From all these rumors, I can't take it no more

[Verse 4]
Am Em Am Em
What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
F G
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life
Am Em Am Em
What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
F G
I'm a man who thinks, not a man who drinks, so please let me live my life
Am Em Am Em
What's mine is mine, I ain't got time for rumors in my life
