title :    If you could read my mind
submitted by : Michael Cravin

A                                         G
If you could read my mind love, what a tale my thoughts could tell.
A                                   G
Just like an old time movie,' bout a ghost from a wishing well.
A                        D                            E                      
A 
In a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet.
D                              A 
You know that ghost is me.
D                   E                 D                  E                    
    A 
And I will never be set free as long as I'm a ghost that you can't see.

A                                      G
If I could read your mind love, what a tale your thoughts could tell.
A                                     G
Just like a paper-back novel, the kind the drugstore sells.
A                                               D                             
E                  A 
When you reach the part where the heartaches come the hero would be me.
D                     A 
But heroes often fail....
D                         E                  D                        E       
             A 
You won't read that book again because the endings just too hard to take.

A - G - A - G

A                       D                           E                         
    A 
I walk away, like a movie star who gets burned in a three-way script...
D                  A 
Enter, number two....
D                       E                      D                  E           
            A 
A movie queen to play the scene of bringin' all the good things out in me.
         D                        A 
But for now love, let's be real....
D                              E                         D                    
  E 
I never thought I could act this way and I've got to say that I just don't 
get it.
D                        E                             D                      
    E                   A 
I don't know where we went wrong but the feelings gone and I just can't get 
it back.

A                                         G
If you could read my mind love, what a tale my thoughts could tell.
A                                    G
Just like an old time movie, ' bout a ghost from a wishing well.
A                         D                           E                    A 
In a castle dark, or a fortress strong, with chains upon my feet.
D                         A 
But the story always ends....
D                    E                               D                        
E                  A 
And if you read between the lines you'll know that I'm just trying to 
understand.
D                            A 
The feelings that you lack....
D                              E                          D                   
   E 
I never thought I could feel this way and I've got to say, that I just don't 
get it.
D                        E                                D                   
      E                   A
I don't know where we went wrong but the feelings gone and I just can't get 
it back.
