       Ebm                  Ebsus4 Ebm
Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I  knew
           Bb               Ab
'Bout your plans to make me blue
                Ebm     Ebsus4 Ebm
With some other guy you knew before
                      Bb                        Ab
Between the two of us guys you know I loved you more


[Chorus]

                 Cm           Ab
It took me by surprise I must say
       Ebm             Ab
When I found out yesterday
                      Ebm                  Ebsus4  Ebm
Don't you know that I heard it through the grape - vine
         Ab
Not much longer would you be mine
      Ebm                  Ebsus4  Ebm
Oh, I heard it through the grape - vine
        Ab
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey honey yeah
   Ebm                  Ebsus4    Ebm                       Ebsus4
(I heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be
 Ebm
 my baby)

Ebm     Ebsus4 Ebm     Ebsus4 Ebm


[Verse]

          Ebm         Ebsus4   Ebm
I know a man ain't supposed to cry
           Bb                  Ab
But these tears I can't hold inside
        Ebm             Ebsus4   Ebm
Losing you would end my life you see
        Bb                Ab
Cos you mean that much to me


[Chorus]

                Cm          Ab
You could have told me yourself
          Ebm           Ab
That you loved someone else
          Ebm                  Ebsus4 Ebm
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
         Ab
Not much longer would you be mine
      Ebm                  Ebsus4 Ebm
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
        Ab
And I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey honey yeah
   Ebm                  Ebsus4    Ebm                  Ebsus4  Ebm
(I heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby)

Ebm     Ebsus4 Ebm     Ebsus4 Ebm (x3)


[Verse]

                   Ebm     Ebsus4   Ebm
People say believe half of what you see
         Bb               Ab
Son, and none of what you hear
            Ebm   Ebsus4  Ebm
But I can't help bein' confused
         Bb                 Ab
If it's true please tell me dear


[Chorus]

       Cm             Ab
Do you plan to let me go
              Ebm             Ab
For the other guy you loved before?
                      Ebm                  Ebsus4 Ebm
Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine
         Ab
Not much longer would you be mine
        Ebm                  Ebsus4 Ebm
Baby, I heard it through the grapevine
          Ab
Ooh, I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey honey yeh
   Ebm                  Ebsus4   Ebm                  Ebsus4  Ebm
(I heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby)
