[Verse 1]
Fm Bb/F Fm
Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
C Bb7
'Bout your plans to make me blue.
Fm Bb/F Fm
With some other guy you knew be-fore,
C Bb7
Between two of us guys, you know I loved you more.
[Bridge 1]
Dm Bb7
It took me by sur-prise, I must say,
Fm Bb7
When I found out yester-day. Don't you know that;
[Chorus 1]
Fm Bb7 Fm
I heard it through the grape-vine;
Bb
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Fm Bb7 Fm
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
Bb7 (Fm)
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

(I heard it through the grapevine,

[Verse 2]
Fm Bb/F Fm
I know a man ain't sup-posed to cry,
C Bb7
But these tears, I can't hold in-side.
Fm Bb/F Fm
Losing you, would end my life, you see,
C Bb7
'Cos you mean that much to me.
[Bridge 2]
Dm Bb7
You could have told me your-self,
Fm Bb7
That you loved someone else.
[Chorus 2]
Fm Bb7 Fm
Instead, I heard it through the grape-vine;
Bb
Not much longer would you be mine.
Fm Bb7 Fm
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
Bb7 (Fm)
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

[Verse 3]
Fm
People say; believe half of what you see,
C Bb7
Son, and none of what you hear.
Fm
But I can't help, but be confused,
C Bb7
If it's true, please tell me, dear.
[Bridge 3]
Dm Bb7
Do you plan to let me go,
Fm Bb7
For the other guy you loved be-fore?
[Chorus 3]
Fm Bb7 Fm
I heard it through the grape-vine;
Bb
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Fm Bb7 Fm
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
Bb7 Fm
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
