     Dm                                          A7               G
Ooo, bet you're wondering how I knew, about your plans to make me blue.
                Dm                                              A7
With some other guy that you knew before? Between the two of us guys you
       G                               Bm           G           Dm
know I love you more. It took me by surprise I must say, when I found out
      G
yesterday.

       Dm                                       G
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would
                    Dm                                      G
you be mine. Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine, and I'm just about to
                           Dm
lose my mind, honey, honey yeah.

                Dm                                   A7
You know that a man ain't supposed to cry, but these tears I can't hold
  G            Dm                                        A7        G
inside. Losing you would end my life you see, 'cause you mean that much to me.
               Bm          G              Dm            G
You could have told me yourself, that you found someone else.

           Dm                                       G
Instead, I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would
                    Dm                                      G

People say believe half of what you see, na-na-not from what you hear
        Dm                           A7                      G
I can't help being confused, if it's true won't you tell me, dear?
       Bm             G                 Dm                  G
Do you plan to let me go, for the other guy that you knew before?

       Dm                                       G
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would
