^GIf you could read my mind love, ^Dm6/Fwhat a tale my thoughts could tell ^GJust like an old time movie '^Dm6/Fbout a ghost from a wishin' well ^GIn a castle ^G7dark or a ^Cfortress strong with ^Dchains upon my feet ^Em C G [Fill #2] You know that ghost is me And ^CI will never ^G/Bbe set free as ^Am7long as I'm a ^Dghost that you can't ^Gsee

^GIf I could read your mind love, ^Dm6/Fwhat a tale your thoughts could tell ^GJust like a paperback novel ^Dm6/Fthe kind that drugstores sell ^GWhen you reach the ^G7part where the ^Cheartaches come the ^Dhero would be ^Emme C G [Fill #2] But heroes often fail And ^Cyou won't read that ^G/Bbook again ^Am7because the ending's ^Djust too hard to ^Gtake
