[Intro]

N.C.                            
It all starts with a whisper on 
                Em
the devil's telephone
 
 
[Verse]

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]

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                          
Every lie you tell is like 
Em D      G   Em
poison in the well
 
 
[Verse]

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]

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     
Cause I'm headed       
          A
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                          
Every lie you tell is like 
Em D      G   Em
poison in the well
 
 
[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                          
Every lie you tell is like 
Em D      G   Em
poison in the well
 
 
[Outro]

Em                   N.C.
It all starts with a whisper 

in the devil's telephone
