Better run through the jungle Better run through the jungle Better run through the jungle Don't look back to see Thought I heard a rumbling, calling to my name Two hundred million guns are loaded, Satan cries, "Take aim" Better run through the jungle Better run through the jungle Better run through the jungle Don't look back to see

And I'm just about to lose my mind

Dm

Honey, honey, yeah I know a man ain't supposed to cry But these tears I can't hold inside Losing you would end my life, you see 'Cause you mean that much to me You could have told me yourself That you've found someone else Instead, I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Oooh, I heard it through the grapevine And I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey, well People say believe half of what you see Son, and none of what you hear I can't help being confused If it's true, please tell me, dear Do you plan to let me go For the other guy that you loved before? Don't you know, I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Baby, I heard it through the grapevine Oooh, I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey, yeah
