D D9
If you could read my mind love
Am7
What a tale my thoughts could tell
D D9
Just like an old time movie
Am7
'bout a ghost from a wishin' well
D G
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
A Bm
With chains upon my feet
G D
You know that ghost is me
G D
And I will never be set free
Em7sus4 A D Am7 D Am7
As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see
D D9
If I could read your mind love
Am7
What a tale your thoughts could tell
D D9
Just like a paperback novel
Am7
The kind that drugstores sell
D G
Then you reached the part where the heartaches come
A Bm
The heroe would be me
G D
But heroes often fail
G D
And you won't read that book again
Em7sus4 A D Am7 D Am7
Because the ending's just too hard to take
D G
I'd walk away like a movie star
A Bm
Who gets burned in a three way script
G D
Enter number two
G D
A movie queen to play the scene
Em7sus4 A Bm
Of bringing all the good things out in me
G D
But for now love, let's be real
G D
I never thought I could feel this way
Em7sus4 A
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
G D
I don't know where we went wrong
Em7sus4
But the feelin's gone
A D D9 Am7
And I just can't get it back
D D9
If you could read my mind love
Am7
What a tale my thoughts could tell
D D9
Just like an old time movie
Am7
'bout a ghost from a wishin' well
D G
In a castle dark or a fortress strong
A Bm
With chains upon my feet
G D
But stories always end
G D
And if you read between the lines
Em7sus4 A Bm
You'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand
G D
The feelin's that you lack
G D
I never thought I could feel this way
Em7sus4 A
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
G D
I don't know where we went wrong
Em7sus4
But the feelin's gone
A D D9 Am7 D
And I just can't get it back
