[Dm]She, she ain’t [Am]real, she ain’t gonna [C]be
Able to love you like I [G]will, [Dm]she is a [Am]stranger,
[C]You and I have history, or [G]don’t you remember?
[Dm]Sure, she’s got it [Am]all,
But, [C]baby, is that really what you [G]want?


[Dm]Bless your soul, you’ve got your [Am]head in the clouds,
She made a [C]fool out of you, and, boy, she’s [G]bringing you down,
She made your [Dm]heart melt, but you’re [Am]cold to the core,
Now [C]rumour has it she ain’t got your [G]love anymore,


Rumour has it, [Dm]rumour has it, [Am]
Rumour has it, [C]rumour has it, [G]
Rumour has it, [Dm]rumour has it, [Am]
Rumour has it, [C]rumour has it [G]


[Dm]She, is half your [Am]age,
But I’m [C]guessing that’s the reason that you [G]strayed,
I [Dm]heard you’ve been [Am]missing me,
You’ve been [C]telling people things you shouldn’t [G]be,
Like [Dm]when we creep out and [Am]she ain’t around,
[C]Haven’t you heard the [G]rumours?


[Dm]Bless your soul, you’ve got your [Am]head in the clouds,
You made a [C]fool out of me,
And, boy, [G]you’re bringing me down,
You made my [Dm]heart melt,
Yet you’re [Am]cold to the core,
But [C]rumour has it I’m the one you’re [G]leaving her for,


Rumour has it, [Dm]rumour has it, [Am]
Rumour has it, [C]rumour has it, [G]
Rumour has it, [Dm]rumour has it, [Am]
Rumour has it, [C]rumour has it [G]


[Dm] [Am]All of these [C]words [Gm]whispered in my [Dm]ear,
Tell a [Am]story that I [C]cannot [Gm]bear to [Dm]hear,
Just ’cause I [Am]said it, it don’t [C]mean that I [G]meant it,
People say [Dm]crazy things, just ’cause I [Am]said it,
Don’t [C]mean that I meant it, just ’cause you [G]heard it,


[D] [Am] [C] [G]
Rumour has [Dm]it, rumour has it, [Am]
Rumour has it, [C]rumour has it, [G]
Rumour has it, [Dm]rumour has it, [Am]
Rumour has it, [C]rumour has it[G]
Rumour has [Dm]it, rumour has it, [Am]
Rumour has it, [C]rumour has it, [G]
Rumour has [Dm]it, rumour has it, [Am]
But [C]rumour has it he’s the one I’m [G]leaving you for.


[Dm]
