[Intro]
N.C. Em
It all starts with a whisper on the devil's telephone
[Verse 1]
Em
You don't gotta watch the news
Em
Just sit down and place your order
Em
Specials up on that chalkboard
Em
And something's brewing in that corner
A
They pour the coffee and get their tea
G D Em
But you didn't hear it from me
[Verse 2]
Em
That sugar in his cup
Em
Ain't the only thing he's stirring up
Em
Says he saw my cousin Kelly
Em
Get out of someone else's truck
A
She looked tired and she looked sweaty
G D/F# Em
And her husband gets back this week
A G N.C.
But you didn't hear it from me
[Chorus]
Em
Drink it up like water
G
Come and get your fill
A
These tales keep getting taller
Em
Run that rumor mill
Em
You know what you do when you assume
G
Before you even know the truth
A Em D G Em
Every lie you tell is like poison in the well
[Verse 3]
Em
Word got back round to her husband
Em
Now he's taking her to court
Em
He ain't buying what she's selling
Em
Now he's filing for divorce
A
I heard he's taking everything
G D/F# Em
But you didn't hear it from me
[Verse 4]
Em
Well, here's what really happened
Em
It's not what you all believed
Em
Her tire blew out on 30
Em
And she was wrenching in that heat
A
A truck pulled up, said jump in
G A
Cause I'm headed where you live
[Chorus]
Em
Drink it up like water
G
Come and get your fill
A
These tales keep getting taller
Em
Run that rumor mill
Em
You know what you do when you assume
G
Before you even know the truth
A Em D G Em
Every lie you tell is like poison in the well
[Guitar Solo]
Em G A Em
G A Em D G Em
[Bridge]
Em
That fire don't need stoked
N.C.
So keep those loose lips closed
N.C.
It all starts with a whisper on the devil's telephone
[Chorus]
Em
Drink it up like water
G
Come and get your fill
A
These tales keep getting taller
Em
Run that rumor mill
Em
You know what you do when you assume
G
Before you even know the truth
A Em D G Em
Every lie you tell is like poison in the well
[Outro]
Em N.C.
It all starts with a whisper in the devil's telephone
