D A Em D I have heard rumors all over town, D A Em D They say that you're planning to put me down. G F#m A All I would like you to do, G/b Em D Is tell me that it isn't true. They say that you've been seen with some other man, That he's tall, dark and handsome, and you're holding his hand. Darlin', I'm a-countin' on you, Tell me that it isn't true.
G F#m Em D To know that some other man is holdin' you tight, F# Bm Em F#m Em It hurts me all over, it doesn't seem right.
All of those awful things that I have heard, I don't want to believe them, all I want is your word. So darlin', you better come through, Tell me that it isn't true.
