 1st verse
Bet  you're wondering how I knew 'bout you're 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
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.
 Verse 2 same chords are the same
 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
 told me yourself that you found someone else. Instead I
 People say believe half of what you see, son, and none of what you hear.
 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 that you knew before?
 Oo I
