Waylon Jennings    Be Careful Of The Stones You Throw chords
Start Jamming...
[D]
A [G] tongue can accuse and carry bad [D] news.
[G] The seeds of distrust it [D] will sow.
[Am]
So [G] unless you've made no mistakes in your [D] life,
be careful [A] of stones that [D] you throw.
A neighbor was passing my garden one time.
[G] She stopped and I knew right [D] away
that it was gossip, not flowers, that she had on her mind.
[A] And this is what I heard my neighbor say.
[D] That girl who lives down the street should be run [G] from our midst.
[D] She drinks and she talks quite a lot.
She knows [A] not to speak to my child or me.
[D] My neighbor then [Am] smiled and I thought,
[G] A tongue can accuse and carry [D] bad news.
[G] The seeds of distrust it [D] will sow.
[Am]
[D] [G] So unless you've made no mistakes in [D] your life,
be careful [A] of stones that you [D] throw.
A car speeded by and screaming at [G] brakes.
A [D] sound that made my blood chill.
For my neighbor's one child had been pulled from the [A] path
and saved by a girl lying still.
[D] The child was unhurt and my neighbor cried [B] out,
Oh, [G] who was that [D] brave girl so sweet?
I covered the crushed, broken [A] body and said,
The [D] bad girl who lives down the street.
A [G] tongue can accuse and carry [D] bad news.
[G] The seeds of distrust it [D] will sow.
[G] So unless you've made no mistakes in [D] your life,
be careful [A] of stones that [D] you throw.
Be careful [A] of stones that [D] you throw.
