-Words and Music by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong

Ooh, I bet you're wond'rin' how I knew
'bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys you know I love you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Dontcha know that I

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
(Heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, ooh, ooh, ooh)

I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losin' you would end my life you see
'cause you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you love 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 yeah
(Heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

<brief instrumental interlude>

People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
But I can't help bein' confused
If it's true please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before?
Dontcha know I

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Baby I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
(Heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer would you be my baby, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)


Honey, honey, I know
That you're lettin' me go
Said I heard it through the grapevine

FADE
Heard it through the grapevine

I Heard It Through The Grapevine (N. Whitfield & B. Strong)
Oo, Bet you're wond'ring how I knew


'bout your plans to make me blue

With some other guy that you knew before?


Between the two of us guys

you know I love you more.
It took me by surprise, I must say
when I found out yesterday. Oo,

CHORUS:


I heard it through the grapevine

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

You know that a man ain't supposed to cry
but these tears I can't hold inside.


Losin' you would end my life you see

'cause you mean that much to me.
You could have told me yourself that you found someone else.
Instead,

CHORUS

People say you "Hear from what you see
na na not from what you hear."


I can't help bein' confused

if it's true, won't you tell me dear?


Do you plan to let me go

for the other guy that you knew before? Oo,

CHORUS

CHORUS
