Take it on the Run by REO Speedwagon Chords & Lyrics

    Take it on the Run by REO Speedwagon

    Heard it from a friend who
    Heard it from a friend who
    Heard it from another you been messin' around                
    
    They say you got a boy friend
    You're up there every weekend
    They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down
    
    But I know the neighborhood
    And talk is cheap when the story is good
    And the tales grow taller on down the line
    
    But I'm telling you, babe
    That I don't think it's true, babe
    And even if it is keep this in mind    [G/F#]
    
    {c:Refrain}
    {start_of_chorus}
    You take it on the run baby
    If that's the way you want it baby
    Then I don't want you around    [G/F#]
    I don't believe it
    Not for a minute
    You're under the gun so you take it on the run                
    {end_of_chorus}
    
    You're thinking up your white lies
    You're putting on your bedroom eyes
    You say you're coming home but you won't say when
    
    But I can feel it coming
    If you leave tonight keep running
    And you need never look back again    [G/F#] 
    
    {c:Repeat Refrain x 1}
    
    {c:Solo}
    
                                                               
    (repeat 4x)
    
    {c:Repeat Refrain x 2}
    
    Heard it from a friend who
    Heard it from a friend who
    Heard it from another you been messin' around
