I Heard It Through The Grapevine

       Am                   C     Am
Well I bet you're wondering how I knew,
           G                D
'Bout your plans to make me blue,
                Am           C      Am
With some other guy that you knew before,
                     G                         D
Out of the two of us guys you know I loved you more.
              F#m          D
Took me by surprise I must say,
       C               D
When I found out yesterday.

           Am                   C    Am
Dear God I heard it through the grapevine,
         G                   D
Not much longer would you be mine.
         Am                   C    Am
No, no I heard it through the grapevine,
         G                    D
And I'm just about to lose my mind,
              Am
Honey, honey, yeah.
                      C          Am                        C*    Am
(Heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be my baby)
                      C          Am                        C*    Am

                      C    Am
(Heard it through the grapevine)

                  Am                    C
Now I know that a man ain't supposed to cry,
          G                    D
But these tears I can't hold inside.
       Am        C        C
Losing you is my life you see,
            G                 D
Because you mean that much to me.
             F#m         D
You could've told me yourself,
         C             D
That you loved someone else.

          Am                   C    Am
Instead I heard it through the grapevine,
Not much longer would you be mine.
         G                   D
No, no I heard it through the grapevine,
         G                    D
And I'm just about to lose my mind,
              Am
Honey, honey, yeah.

                                               that you're letting me go.

          Am             C
You can't hide what I've seen,
              G              D
And you can't hide what I've heard,
            Am               C
But I can't stand this being confused,
           G                         D
So if it's true you'd better tell me dear.
       F#m            D
Do you plan to let me go,
              C               D
For the other guy you loved before.
