^GIf you could ^Gadd9read my mind love ^Dm6/FWhat a tale my thoughts could tell ^GJust like an ^Gadd9old time movie ^Dm6/F'bout a ghost from a wishin' well ^GIn a castle ^G9dark or a ^Cfortress strong With ^D7/F#chains upon my ^Emfeet You ^Cknow that ghost is ^Gme And ^CI will never ^G/Bbe set free As ^Along as I'm a ^Dghost that you can't ^Gsee ^Gadd9

^GIf I could re^Gadd9ad your mind love ^Dm6/FWhat a tale your thoughts could tell ^GJust like a p^Gadd9aperback novel ^Dm6/FThe kind that drugstores sell ^GWhen you reach the ^G9part where the ^Cheartaches come The ^D7/F#hero would be ^Emme But ^Cheroes often ^Gfail And ^Cyou won't read that ^G/Bbook again Bec^Aause the ending's ^Djust too hard to ^Gtake^Gadd9
