I Heard It Through The Grapevine

11th September 2001

This is as close as I could get...

I HEARD IT THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE by MARVIN GAYE

Chords used:

Ooh I bet you're wonderin' how I knew

'Bout your plans to make me blue

With some other guy you knew before

Between two of us guys you know I loved you more

It took me by surprise I must say

When I found out yesterday

Don't you know that I heard it through the grape - vine

Not much longer would you be mine

Oh, I heard it through the grape - vine

Oh, 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)

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)

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)
