A
If you could read my mind love
G
What a tale my thoughts could tell
A
Just like an old time movie
G
'bout a ghost from a wishin' well
A A7 D
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
E Gbm
With chains upon my feet
D A
You know that ghost is me
D A
And I will never be set free
Bm7 E A
As long as I m a ghost that you can t see
A
If I could read your mind love
G
What a tale your thoughts could tell
A
Just like a paperback novel
G
The kind that drugstores sell
A A7 D
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
E Gbm
The hero would be me
D A
But heroes often fail
D A
And you won't read that book again
Bm7 E A
Because the ending's just too hard to take
Interlude: A G A G
A A7 D
I d walk away like a movie star
E Gbm
Who gets burned in a three way script
D A
Enter number two
D A
A movie queen to play the scene
Bm7 E A
Of bringing all the good things out in me
D A
But for now love, let's be real
D A
I never thought I could act this way
Bm7 E
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
D A
I don't know where we went wrong
Bm7
But the feelin's gone
E A
And I just can't get it back
A
If you could read my mind love
G
What a tale my thoughts could tell
A
Just like an old time movie
G
'bout a ghost from a wishin' well
A A7 D
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
E Gbm
With chains upon my feet
D A
But stories always end
D A
And if you read between the lines
Bm7 E A
You'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand
D A
The feelin's that you lack
D A
I never thought I could feel this way
Bm7 E
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
D A
I don't know where we went wrong
Bm7
But the feelin's gone
E A
And I just can't get it back
