^GIf I could ^Gadd9read your mind love Dm/F What a tale your thoughts could tell ^GJust like a ^Gadd9paperback novel Dm/F The kind that drugstores sell ^GWhen you reach the ^Gadd9part where the hea^Crtaches come The ^Dhero wo^Emuld be me But ^Cheroes often ^Gfail And ^Cyou won't read that ^G/Bbook again Am7sus D (G Gadd9 Dm/F x 2) Because the ending's just too hard to take
