I Heard it Through the Grapevine

[Intro]
 
 Dm  G/D, Dm  G/D  Dm (x5)
 
 
 [Verse 1]
 
        Dm                   G/D   Dm
 Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
            A                G7
 'Bout your plans to make me blue.
                 Dm      G/D     Dm
 With some other guy you knew be-fore,
                   A                          G7
 Between two of us guys, you know I loved you more.
 
 
 [Bridge 1]
 
                   Bm            G7
 It took me by sur-prise, I must say,
        Dm               G7
 When I found out yester-day. Don't you know that;
 
 
 [Chorus 1]
 
   Dm                   G7    Dm
 I heard it through the grape-vine;
          G
 Not much longer, would you be mine.
       Dm                   G7    Dm
 Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
         G7                                       (Dm)
 Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
 
 
 [Break]
 
    Dm
 (I heard it through the grapevine,
                           G/D Dm       G/D  Dm, G/D
 Not much longer would you be  my baby).
 
 
 [Verse 2]
 
          Dm            G/D      Dm
 I know a man ain't sup-posed to cry,
           A                      G7
 But these tears, I can't hold in-side.
        Dm                G/D       Dm
 Losing you, would end my life, you see,
          A                 G7
 'Cos you mean that much to me.
 
 
 [Bridge 2]
 
                Bm           G7
 You could have told me your-self,
          Dm            G7
 That you loved someone else.
 
 
 [Chorus 2]
 
            Dm                   G7    Dm
 Instead, I heard it through the grape-vine;
          G
 Not much longer would you be mine.
       Dm                   G7    Dm
 Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
         G7                                       (Dm)
 Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

    Dm
 (I heard it through the grapevine,
                           G/D Dm       G/D  Dm, G/D
 Not much longer would you be  my baby).
 
 
 [Interlude]

 [Verse 3]
 
 Dm
  People say; believe half of what you see,
          A                G7
 Son, and none of what you hear.
             Dm
 But I can't help, but be confused,
         A                     G7
 If it's true, please tell me, dear.
 
 
 [Bridge 3]
 
        Bm             G7
 Do you plan to let me go,
               Dm               G7 
 For the other guy you loved be-fore?
 
 
 [Chorus 3]
 
   Dm                   G7    Dm
 I heard it through the grape-vine;
          G
 Not much longer, would you be mine.
       Dm                   G7    Dm
 Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
         G7                                        Dm
 Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

 Not much longer would you be  my baby).
