[F] [Bb] Rumors was recorded at the record plant in San Francisco.
And one [F] afternoon, Stevie found a hidden corner of the studio [Bb] to privately gather her thoughts
on her [F] failing relationship with Lindsay.
I was just hanging out in the rest [Abm] of the record plant and Sly Stone had a studio there.
And the people that owned the studio let me in there.
And I went in there with my Fender Rhodes and I spent the afternoon in there and I wrote [Am] Dreams.
The next day, and this was [Ab] before the final [G] blow up of me and Lindsay.
[Fm] But we were close, [G] but we hadn't had that final blow up yet.
[A]
[Gm] Now
[F]
[Dm] there you go again, you say you want your freedom, [F] who am I to keep you down?
[G] I really was the one [A] that wanted my freedom at [E] that point.
[Dm] [Gbm] Because I just wasn't happy [E] in the relationship anymore.
[F] The relationship, in my opinion, had become too dark [Db] and too [C] obsessive and [Dm] [G] too heavy.
[F] I just was looking for some spring air.
I was just looking to breathe again.
I think the thing about Stevie Nicks is her style of writing is much more pastoral, whimsical, west coast, hippie really.
And Lindsay Buckingham's style is a much tougher, almost punkier sound actually.
[Eb]
[Bbm] Lindsay of course had a [Ab] riposte to Stevie's take on their relationship.
Complete with a dramatic opening and a [Eb] rollicking backbeat.
[N] I had this idea, it was actually taken from Street Fighting Man by the Rolling Stones, where Charlie Watts was going
And Mick couldn't quite get that and he did his own thing, which was he did a 4-4 and he went
[C]
[Bb] [F]
Loving you isn't the right thing to [C]
do.
[Bb] How can I ever change the things that [F] I feel?
[Bb]
Go Your Own [F] Way is a bittersweet testimony [C] from a partner [Bb] to another partner.
Well I always looked [E] at Go Your Own Way as [Bb] Lindsay's dreams.
Don't take this from me.
[F] [Dm]
My dreams [Bb] was my kind of airy [C] fairy spirituality saying when the rain washes you clean you'll [D] know.
In other words we're [Bb] all going to come out of this.
[F] [C] And Lindsay you and I will come out of this and we'll be friends and it'll be okay.
[Dm] And [C] Lindsay's [Gm] dreams, which was Go Your Own Way, [C] was angry and nasty.
[F] And in my opinion extremely disrespectful to [C] say shacking up.
[Bb]
[F]
And me, ladylike [Bb] prudish Stevie, [F] [C] which I am, [Bb]
was very offended by him saying [F] shacking up is all you want [Dm] to do.
Because I was not in any [Bb] kind of a shacking up mode.
I was [C] not shacking up with anybody.
Go Your Own [Dm] Way, [Bb] if you call it thunder, [C] the moment's dead.
[G] It may be [Dm] a rather [F] truthful and blunt [C] observation, but [Bb] [F] that's the way he writes songs.
[Bb] [F] [C]
[Bb]
[F] I was hired to do the job.
I didn't understand.
Lindsay always refused to sing his lyrics.
And I found out later that the reason why he wasn't singing the lyrics was because he knew it would make Stevie mad.
Lindsay and I broke up like on the last day.
And we had a big fight.
I don't remember what the fight was about.
But we were [C] getting ready to go home and I basically said to him, [Eb] well I'll pack up the car and you drive it and [Dm] I'm flying home and you drive.
And we were done.
[Bb] Done.
