[C]
If you could read my mind, [Bb] love, what a [C] tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old-time movie about a ghost from a wishing well
In a castle dark or [F] a fortress strong [G] with chains upon my [Am] feet
You [Fm] know that [C] ghost is me, [F] and I will never [C] be set free
[G] As long as I am a ghost that you [C] can't see
If I could read your mind, [Bb] love, what a tale your [C] thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback [Bb] novel, the kind the drugstore sells
[C] When you reach the part where [F] the heartaches come
[G] The hero [Am] would be me, [F] but heroes often [C] fail
And [F] you won't read [C] that book again, [Dm] cause the [G] ending's just too
[C] hard to take
[Bb] [F] [C] [F]
[C]
[Bb] [A] [Bb]
[C] I'd walk away like [F] a movie star who [G] gets burned in a three-way [Am] script
[F] Enter number [C] two, [F] a movie queen [C] to play the scene
[Dm] Of bringing all [G] the good things out in [Am] me
But [F] for now, love, [G] let's be real
[F] I never thought I [C] could act this way
[Dm] I've got to say [G] that I just don't get it
[F] I don't know [C] where we went wrong, [Dm] but the feeling's gone
[G] And I just can't get [C] it back
[G] [C]
If you could read my mind, love, [Dm] what a tale my thoughts could tell
[C] Just like an old-time movie [Bb] about a ghost from a wishing well
[C] In a castle dark or [F] a fortress strong
[G] With chains upon [Am] my feet, [F] the story's always [C] end
[F] And if you read [Am] between [C] the lines
[Dm] You'll know that I'm [G] just trying to [D] understand
[Am]
[F] The feelings that [C] you lack
[F] I never thought I [C] could feel this way
[Dm] I've got to [D] say [C] that I just [G] don't get [F] it
I don't know [Em] where [C] we went wrong, [Dm] but the feeling's gone
[G] And I just can't get [C] it back
