_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[G] I've been locked inside, empty space in [Em] my heart
And [C] some things never change, oh
[G] How it hurts me and how it's tearing me [Em] apart
_ _ [C] And it just goes on and on
Can [Em] you read my mind?
Take [C] a good look at [Dm] my pain
Could [Em] you paint the time?
[C] Just to stand here in [B] my place
[G] What if [D] I never want to say [Am] goodbye, goodbye? _
[G] Could you [D] smile while inside?
I just [C] wanna cry [D] Look inside
[Em] Can you read my mind?
_ [C] Oh, [D] so good
[G] When I hear your name
I feel so low [Em] deep inside
It's [C] still hard to say, [G] oh
What your love had to say
Time will [Em] heal the pain
And [C] it just goes on forever
[Em] Can you read my mind?
[C] Have you closed the [D] door on love?
[Em] Can you be so blind?
[C] Did you think I'd [B] just give up?
[G] What if I never want to [Am] say goodbye, goodbye? _
[G] Could you smile while [D] inside?
I [C] just wanna cry, [D] wanna cry
[G] What [D] if I never want to [Am] say goodbye, goodbye? _
[G] Could you smile when you're hurt so [C] deep inside?
[D] And it never [G] fades away
_ _ [Em] _ _ [C] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[Am] Time can erase the [D] reasons why _ _
[Am] _ Count my mistakes [C] and the [D] hate
Since you [G] said goodbye
I just wanna [Am] say goodbye, goodbye
[G] Could you smile while inside?
I [C] just wanna cry, [D] wanna cry
[G] What if I never want to [Am] say goodbye, [E] goodbye?
[G] Could you smile when you're hurt so [C] deep inside?
[D] And it never, [G] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ [C] never [G] fades _ _ _ [E] _ _ [G] _
away
