[Verse 1]
         D5                   Dm    D5
Ooh-ooh, bet you're wondering how I knew
           A               G
'Bout your plan to make me blue
                D5           Dm     D5
With some other guy that you knew before?
                      A                G
Between the two of us guys, you know I love you more
              Bm            G           Dm              G
Took me by surprise, I must say, when I found out yesterday
 
 
[Chorus]
         D5                     Dm/F D5
Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
         G5           G/A    G
Not much longer would you be mine
         D5                     Dm/F D5
Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
        G5            G/A     G
And I'm just about to lose my mind
             (D5)
Honey, honey yeah

[Verse 2]
                D5           Dm       D5
You know that a man ain't supposed to cry
          A                    G
But these tears I can't hold inside
       D5               Dm        D5
Losing you would end my life, you see
           A         G
'Cause you mean that much to me
             Bm          G             Dm            G
You could've told me yourself that you found someone else
 
 
[Chorus]
         D5                     Dm/F D5
Instead, I heard it through the grapevine
         G5           G/A    G
Not much longer would you be mine
         D5                     Dm/F D5
Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
        G5            G/A     G
And I'm just about to lose my mind
             (D5)
Honey, honey yeah

[Verse 3]
                D5        Dm       D5
People say "You hear from what you see
          A                 G
Not, not, not from what you hear."
        D5       Dm       D5
I can't help but being confused
        A                       G
If it's true, won't you tell me dear?
       Bm             G
Do you plan to let me go
              Dm                  G
For the other guy that you knew before?
 
 
[Chorus]
         D5                     Dm/F D5
Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
         G5           G/A    G
Not much longer would you be mine
         D5                     Dm/F D5
Ooh-ooh, I heard it through the grapevine
        G5            G/A     G
And I'm just about to lose my mind
             (D5)
