    *CAPO 1st FRET*

    (Original Key: Ebm)

    Intro:

    Dm Dsus4, Dm Dsus4 Dm (x5)

    Verse 1:

    Cejilla 4º traste

    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
    A G
    'Bout your plans to make me blue.
    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    With some other guy you knew be-fore,
    A G
    Between two of us guys, you know I loved you more.

    Bridge 1:

    G Bm G
    It took me by sur-prise, I must say,
    Dm G
    When I found out yester-day. Don't you know that:

    Chorus 1:

    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    I heard it through the grape-vine;
    A G
    Not much longer, would you be mine.
    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
    A G Dm
    Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

    Break:

    Dm
    (I heard it through the grapevine,
    Dsus4 Dm Dsus4 Dm, Dsus4, Dm
    Not much longer would you be my baby).

    Verse 2:

    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    I know a man ain't sup-posed to cry,
    A G
    But these tears, I can't hold in-side.
    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    Losing you, would end my life, you see,
    A G
    'Cos you mean that much to me.

    Bridge 2:

    G Bm G
    You could have told me your-self,
    Dm G
    That you loved someone else.

    Chorus 2:

    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    Instead, I heard it through the grape-vine;
    G
    Not much longer would you be mine.
    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
    A G Dm
    Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

    Break:

    Dm
    (I heard it through the grapevine,
    Dsus4 Dm Dsus4 Dm, Dsus4, Dm
    Not much longer would you be my baby).

    Interlude:

    Dm Dsus4, Dm Dsus4 Dm (x5)

    Verse 3:

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

    Bridge 3:

    Bm G
    Do you plan to let me go,
    Dm G
    For the other guy you loved be-fore?

    Chorus 3:

    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    I heard it through the grape-vine;
    A G
    Not much longer, would you be mine.
    Dm Dsus4 Dm
    Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
    A G Dm
    Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.
    Break:

    Dm
    (I heard it through the grapevine,
    Dsus4 Dm Dsus4 Dm, Dsus4, Dm
    Not much longer would you be my baby).
