Introdução:
E
If you could read my mind, love
D
What a tale my thoughts could tell.
E
Just like an old time movie,
D
'Bout a ghost from a wishing well.
E E7
In a castle dark,
A B C#m
Or a fortress strong, with chains around my feet.
A E
You know that ghost is me,
A E
And I will never be set free,
A B E
As long as there?s a ghost that you can't see.
E
If you could read my mind, love,
D
What a tale your thoughts would tell.
E
Just like a paperback novel,
D
The kind the drugstores sell.
E E7
When you reached the part
A B C#m
Where the heartaches come, the hero would be me.
A E
But heroes often fail.
A E
And you won't read that book again,
A B E
Because the ending's just too hard to take.
E E7
I'd walk away
A B C#m
Like a movie star, who gets burned in a three-way script.
A E
A movie queen to play the scene
A B E
Of bringing all the good things out in me
A E
But for now, love, let's be real.
A E
I never thought, I could act this way.
A B
And I've got to say that I just don't get it.
A E
I don't know where we went wrong,
A B E
But the feeling's gone, and I just can't get it back.

E E7

A B C#m
Or a fortress strong, with chains upon my feet.
A E
But stories always end
A E
If you read between the lines
A B E
Tou?ll know that I?m just trying to understand
A E
The feelings that you lack
A E
I never thought I could feel this way
A B
and I?ve got to say that I just don?t get it
A E
I don't know where we went wrong,
A B E
But the feeling's gone, and I just can't get it back.
