---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Loose Talk - John Prine ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Standard Artist: John Prine Album: In Spite Of Ourselves Year: 1999 Intro: So long we've been married Life's burdens we carried Though faith kept us humble and made our love true But plans that we make up Someone seems to break up Oh darlin what else can we do? Chorus: We may have to leave here To find peace of mind, dear Someplace where we can live a life of our own I know you love me And happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone When I go out walkin Theres lots of loose talkin They say we're unhappy and we'll drift apart But darlin' it's not true Because I still love you And I do with all of my heart (Repeat Chorus) Break: They say you are leavin That you are deceivin But you tell me they say the same about me Oh, but we'll show them they're wrong That loose talk can do harm And hope that the truth they will see (Repeat Chorus) If some folks would leave us alone
