[G] Ifx you could read my mind, love
[Fmaj7]Whatxxx a tale my [C] thoughtsx could tell
[G]Justx like an old time movie
[Fmaj7]Aboutxx a ghost from a [C] wishingx well
[G]Inx a castle [G7] darkx or a [C] fortressx strong
With [D] chainsx upon my [Em] feet,x you [C] knowx that ghost is [G] mex

[G] Ifx I could read your mind, love
[Fmaj7]Whatxxx a tale your [C] thoughtsx could tell
[G]Justx like a paper back novel
[Fmaj7]Thexxxx kind the [C] drugstorex sells
[G]Whenx you reach the [G7] partx where the [C] heartachesx come
The [D] herox won't be [Em] beatx but [C] heroesx often [G] failx and
[C]Youx won't read that [Emi7] bookxx again be[C]causex the ending's [D] justx too hard to [G] takex
[G] I'dx walk a[G7]wayx like a [C] moviex star who gets [D] burnedx in a three way [Em] scriptx
[C] Enterx number [G] two,x a [C] moviex queen to [Emi7] playxx the scene
Of [C] bringingx all the [D] goodx things out in [Em] mexx
But for [C] now,x love, let's be [G] realx
I [C] neverx thought I could [Emi7] feelxx this way
And I've [C] gotx to say that I [D] justx don't get it
[C]Ixx don't know where [Emi7] wexxxx went wrong
But the [C] feeling'sx gone and I [D] justx bring get it [G] backx
[G] Ifx you could read my mind, love
