Ooh I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue
MIbm MIbsus4 MIbmWith some other guy you knew before
SIb SOL#Between two of us guys you know I loved you more
DOm SOL#
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
MIbm MIbmsus4 MIbmDon't you know that I heard it through the grape - vine
SIbNot much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grape - vine
SIbOh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey yeh
(I heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be
MIbmmy baby)
MIbm MIbsus4 MIbm MIbmsus4 MIbm
I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life you see
Cos you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you loved someone else
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey yeh
(I heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby)
People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
But I can't help but be confused
If it's true please tell me dear.
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before?
Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey yeh
(I heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby)
