Intro: Am(V)
Verse 1:
I heard a rumour
Am(V)

You know what it's like

The way people are
They talk and they talk
Am(V)
Though they don't understand
They'll whisper and whisper

And lie on demand
Verse 1.5
Please tell me now
I want to know
I have to hear it from your lips
Am Fm
Say it's not so
Verse 2
(same as last verse)
I heard it on Monday
And I laughed a while
I heard it on Tuesday
I managed to smile
I heard it on Wednesday
My patience was tried
I heard it on Thursday
And I hurt inside
I want to know
The depths of your mind
Tell me this whole thing is madness
And we're doing fine
(Bridge - strum here)
