Creedence Clearwater Revival 1970 "Creedence Clearwater Revival" (Whitfield & Strong)

 Dm 2x

     Gm                                          D7               C 
Ooo, bet you're wondering how I knew, about your plans to make me blue.
                Gm                                              D7 
With some other guy that you knew before? Between the two of us guys you
       C                               Em           C           Gm 
know I love you more. It took me by surprise I must say, when I found out
      C 
yesterday. 

       Gm                                       C 
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would
                    Gm                                      C 
you be mine. Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine, and I'm just about to
                           Gm 
lose my mind, honey, honey yeah.

 Dm  4x

                Gm                                   D7 
You know that a man ain't supposed to cry, but these tears I can't hold
  C            Gm                                        D7        C 
inside. Losing you would end my life you see, 'cause you mean that much to me.
               Em          C              Gm            C 
You could have told me yourself, that you found someone else.  

           Gm                                       C 
Instead, I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would
                    Gm                                      C 
you be mine. Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine, and I'm just about to
                           Gm 
lose my mind, honey, honey yeah.

             Gm                                  D7                C 
People say believe half of what you see, nah nah nah from what you hear.
        Gm                           D7             C 
I can't help being confused, if it's true won't you tell me, hear?
       Em             C                 Gm                  C 
Do you plan to let me go, for the other guy that you knew before?

       Gm                                       C 
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would
                   Gm                                      C 
you be mine. Ooo I heard it through the grapevine, and I'm just about to
                           Gm 
lose my mind, honey, honey yeah.
