I Heard It Through The Grapevine
Creedence Clearwater

INTRO: RIFF TWICE

      Dm
Ooo I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
           A                G
'Bout your plans to make me blue
                Dm
With some other guy that you knew before
                      A
Between the two of us guys
                     G
You know I loved you more
                  Bm          G
It took me by surprise I must say
       D7               G7
When I found out yesterday
           Dm
Ooo I heard  it through the grapevine
            G
Not much longer would you be mine
           Dm
Ooo I heard  it through the grapevine
            G
And I'm just about to lose my mind - Honey, honey yeah

RIFF (4x)

                Dm
You know that a man ain't supposed to cry
          A                    G
But these tears I can't hold inside
       Dm
Losin' you would end my life you see
           A                 G
'Cause you mean that much to me
               Bm          G
You could have told me yourself
         Dm            G
That you found someone else
          Dm
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
         G
Not much longer would you be mine
      Dm
Ooo I heard it through the grapevine
        G
And I'm just about to lose my mind - Honey, honey yeah

RIFF (4x)

Dm
People say believe half of what you see
          A                G7
And na-na-none of what you hear
        Dm
I can't help being confused
        A7                      G7
If it's true wont you tell me, dear
       Bm             G7
Do you plan to let me go
         D7                       G7
For the other guy that you knew before
      Dm
Oo, I heard it through the grapevine  
         G7
Not much longer would you be mine
      Dm
Oo, I heard it through the grapevine 
        G7
And I'm just about to lose my mind
             Dm
Honey, honey yeah
