If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts could tell
C Bb
Just like an old-time movie 'bout a ghost from a wishing well
F G Am
In a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet
G C
You know that ghost is me
F Em Dm C
And I will never be set free as long as I'm a ghost you can see
C
If I could read your mind, love, what a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel, the kind the drugstores sell
F
When you reach the part where the heartaches come
G Am
The hero will be me
G C
But heros often fail
F Em Dm G C
And you wont read that book again because the endings just too hard to take
F G Am
I walk away like a movie star who gets burned in through a script
G C F Em Dm G Am
Enter number two: a movie queen to play the scene of bringing all the good things out in me
G C
but for now, love, let's be real
F Em Dm G
I never thought i could act this way and I got to say that I just don't get it
F Em Dm G C
I don't know where we wen't wrong but the feelings gone and I just can't get it back
C Bb
If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts could tell
C Bb
Just like an old-time movie 'bout a ghost from a wishing well
F G Am
In a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet
G C
The story always ends
F Em Dm G Am
And If you read between the lines you'll know that I'm just trying to understand
G C
The feeling that you left
F Em Dm G
I never thought that I could feel this way and I've got to say that I just dont get it
F Em Dm G C
I don't know where we wen't wrong but the feelings gone and I just can't get it back
