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 two of us guys you know I loved you more

Cm Ab
It took me by surprise I must say
Ebm Ab
When I found out yesterday
Ebm Ebmsus4 Ebm
Don't you know that I heard it through the grape - vine
Bb
Not much longer would you be mine
Ebm Ebmsus4 Ebm
Oh, I heard it through the grape - vine
Bb
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey honey yeh
Ebm Ebmsus4 Ebm Ebsus4
(I heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be
Ebm
my baby)

Ebm Ebsus4 Ebm Ebmsus4 Ebm

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)

Ebm Ebsus4 Ebm Ebsus4 Ebm (x3)

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)
