[Intro]
C G7 C C7
[Chorus]
F C
A tongue can accuse and carry bad news
F C C7
The seeds of distrust it will sow
F C
But unless you've made no mistakes in your life
G7 C
Be careful of stones that you throw
[Verse 1]
C F
A neighbor was passing my garden one time
C
She stopped and I knew right away
G7
That it was gossip not flowers she had on her mind
C
And this is what I heard my neighbor say
C F
"That girl down the street should be run from our midst
C
She drinks and she talks quite a lot
G7
She knows not to speak to my child or to me"
C
My neighbor then smiled and I thought
[Chorus]
F C
A tongue can accuse and carry bad news
F C C7
The seeds of distrust it will sow
F C
But unless you've made no mistakes in your life
G7 C
Be careful of stones that you throw
[Verse 2]
C F
A car speeded by and the screaming of brakes
C
A sound that made my blood chill
G7
For my neighbor's one child had been pulled from the path
C
And saved by a girl lying still
C F
The child was unhurt and my neighbor cried out
C
"Oh who was that brave girl so sweet?"
G7
I covered the crushed broken body and sad
C C7
The bad girl who lived down the street
[Chorus]
F C
A tongue can accuse and carry bad news
F C C7
The seeds of distrust it will sow
F C
But unless you've made no mistakes in your life
G7 C
Be careful of stones that you throw
