IF YOU COULD READ MY MIND
By Gordon Lightfoot
Key: G
4 -3 4 -4 4 -2 4
If you could read my mind love
-3� -3� -3� -3� -3� -2 -2
What a tale my thoughts would tell
4 -3 4 -4 4 -2 4
Just like an old time mov-ie
-3� -3� -3� -3�-3�-3� -2 -2
'Bout a ghost from a wish-ing well
-2 -2 -2 -3� -3� 3 -3�-4 4 4
In a cas-tle dark or a for-tress strong
-4 5 -4 4 -4 4
With chains up-on my feet
4 -3 -3� -3� -2 -2
You know that ghost is me
-2 -3 4 4 4 -3 4 4
And I will nev-er be set free,
4 -3 4 4 -4 5 -4 4 -4 4
As long as I'm a ghost that you can�t see
If I could read your mind, love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a pap-er-back nov-el
The kind the drug-store sells
Then you reached the part
Where the heart-aches come
The he-ro would be me.
But he-ros of-ten fail
And you won�t read the book a-gain
Be-cause the end-ing just to hard to take
-2 -2 -3�-3� -3� -3�-4 4 4
I�d walk a-way, like a mov-ie star
-4 -4 5 -4 -4 4 -4 4
Who gets burned in a three-way script
-3 -3� -3� -2 -2 -2 -3 4 4
En-ter num-ber two: a mov-ie queen
4 -3 4 4 4 -3 4 4
To play the scene of bring-ing all
-4 5 -4 4 -4 4
The good things out of me
4 4 -3 -3� -3� -2 -2
But for now love, let�s be real
-2-3 4 4 4 4 -3 4 4
I nev-er thought I could act this way
4 4 -3 4 4
And I�ve got to say
4 -4 5 -4 4 -4
that I just don�t get it
-3 4 4 4 -3 4 4
I don't know where we went wrong
4 4 -3 4 4
But the feel-ing's gone
4 -4 5 -4 4 -4 4
and I just can't get it back
4 -3 4 -4 4 -2 4
If you could read my mind love
-3� -3�-3� -3� -3� -2 -2
What a tale my thoughts would tell
4 -3 4 -4 4 -2 4
Just like an old time mov-ie
-3� -3� -3� -3� -3� -3� -2 -2
'Bout a ghost from a wish-ing well
-2 -2 -2 -3� -3�-3�-3�-4 4 4
In a cas-tle dark or a for-tress strong
-4 5 -4 4 -4 4
With chains up-on my feet
4 -3 -3� -3� -2 -2
But stor-ies al-ways end
-2 -3 4 4 4 -3 4 4
And if you read be-tween the lines
4 -3 4 4 -4 5
You�d know that I'm just try�n
-4 4 -4 4
To un-der-stand
4 -3 -3� -3� -2 -2
The feel-ings that you lack.
-2 -3 4 4 4 4 -3 4 4
I nev-er thought I could feel this way
4 4 -3 4 4
And I�ve got to say
4 -4 5 -4 4 -4
That I just don�t get it.
-3 4 4 4 -3 4 4
I don�t know where we went wrong
4 4 -3 4 4
But the feel-ings gone,
4 -4 5 -4 4 -4 4
And I just can�t get it back
