Heard it from a friend who Heard it from a friend who
D                             G    D G
Heard it from another you been messin' around________
                              C
They say you got a boy friend you're up there every weekend
D                                  G
They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down____


G                    C
But I know the neighborhood and talk is cheap when the story is good
D                            G
And the tales grow taller on down the line
G              C
But I'm telling you, babe that I don't think it's true, babe
D                      G    G/F#
And even if it is keep this in mind_________


[Chorus]
Em                   C
You take it on the run baby if that's the way you want it baby
D                G    G/F#   Em
Then I don't want you around__________I don't believe it
C                              Am                             D Dsus D G
Not for a minute you're under the gun so you take it on the run________


G                         C
You're thinking up your white lies you're putting on your bedroom eyes
D                                 G
You say you're coming home but you won't say when But I can feel it
       C                         D
Coming if you leave tonight keep running And you need never look back
G   G/F#
Again_______


[Chorus]
Em                   C
You take it on the run baby if that's the way you want it baby
D                G    G/F#   Em
Then I don't want you around__________I don't believe it
C                              Am                             D Dsus D G
Not for a minute you're under the gun so you take it on the run________
