On the other hand when she talks about Go Your Own Way she says, "Oh it bugged me terrible. And I had to listen to it every night and sing along with it. It would just put me right back in the place where Lindsey and I were when he wrote that song, back to our apartment where he was really angry with me. It was like I had to revisit the world of the big fight every time he sang it."
So, I got the impression he was sitting on the floor writing it even before FM and that he probably kept fiddling with the thing or adding new parts to it right on through being on the road with FM. When he mentions it's origin, I would agree that they were definitely on the road by that time, but I think it may have been conceived when they were still stuck in an apartment together, based on her comments.

Yes I think a lot of their Rumours songs had been around for some time, (Dreams being an exception, being written in the studio) though it makes a better story to market it as material written literally during the making of the album Rumours. I'm sure songs were tweaked and reworked during the time in the studio, but really the events which the lyrics describe mostly predate the formal breakups and the making of the album.
