Verse 1:

D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
A# A# G# G#
'Bout your plans to make me blue.
D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
With some other guy you knew be-fore,
A# A# G# G#
Between two of us guys, you know I loved you more.

Bridge 1:

Chorus 1:

D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
I heard it through the grape-vine;
A# A# G# G#
Not much longer, would you be mine.
D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
A# A# G# G# D#m D#m
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

Break:

D#m D#m
(I heard it through the grapevine,
D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m, D#sus4 D#sus4, D#m D#m
Not much longer would you be my baby).

Verse 2:

D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
I know a man ain't sup-posed to cry,
A# A# G# G#
But these tears, I can't hold in-side.
D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
Losing you, would end my life, you see,
A# A# G# G#
'Cos you mean that much to me.

Bridge 2:

G# G# Cm Cm G# G#
You could have told me your-self,
D#m D#m G# G#
That you loved someone else.

Chorus 2:

D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
Instead, I heard it through the grape-vine;
G# G#
Not much longer would you be mine.
D#m D#m D#sus4 D#sus4 D#m D#m
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
A# A# G# G# D#m D#m
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

Not much longer would you be my baby).

Interlude:

Verse 3:

D#m D#m
People say; believe half of what you see,
A# A# G# G#
Son, and none of what you hear.
D#m D#m
But I can't help, but be con-fused,
A# A# G# G#
If it's true, please tell me, dear.

For the other guy you loved be-fore?

Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;

Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
