[Ebm]
[Ebm] I bet you wonder how I knew
Of your [Bb] [C] plans to make you blue
With some [Ebm] other guy you knew before
Between the two [Bb] other guys you know I love you more
It could be [Cm] my surprise I'm [Ab] afraid
When [Eb] I found out [Cm] yesterday
You're looking [Eb] at a head through the [Eb] grapevine
When [Ab] you're behind through [Eb] the grapevine
[Ab] Honey, [Ebm] honey, well
You're my baby
You're a man ain't supposed to cry
But [Bb] these tears I can't hold inside
[Ebm] Losing you would end my life you see
Cause [Bb] you mean that much [Ab] to me
You [Cm] could have told me [Ab] yourself
That [Eb] you loved [Ab] someone else
[Eb] And I hurt you so bad
Not [Ab] once more would you be mine
Through [Eb] the grapevine
Lose [Ab] my mind, heart, [Ebm] you well
People say we need magic to see
Son, [Bb] there's none of what you hear
But I [Ebm] can't help being confused
[Bb] True, please tell [C] me dear
Do [Cm] you plan to let [Ab] me go
For [Eb] the other guy you [Ab] love
Through the grapevine
Would [Ab] you be mine
Baby, [Eb] I hurt you
Through the [Eb] grapevine
[Ab] Lose my mind, honey, [Ebm] honey, dear
Honey, honey, I know
Do you plan to let me go
[D] When [Ebm] I hurt you through the grapevine Woo, [B] hey
