If You Could REad My Mind

Gordon Lightfoot
Key: GguitarIntermediate
Text size:
GIf you could read my mind, love,
FWhat a tale my thoughts could tell.
GJust like an old time movie,
FBout a ghost from a wishing well.
GIn a castle darG7k, B
Or a Cfortress strong, with chains upon my fDeet.Em
You kCnow that ghost is me, G
AndC I will never beG/B set free,
As long as I'm a ghost thDat you can't sGee.
If I cGould read your mind, love,
WhFat a tale your thoughts could tell.
JuGst like a paperback novel,
TheF kind the drugstores sell.
Then Gyou reached the part G7
Where Cthe heartaches come, tDhe hero would bEme me.
But hCeroes often fail. G
And Cyou won't read that book again, G
Because tChe ending's juDst too hard to take. Em
GI'd walk awG7ay
Like aC movie star, who getsD burned in a three-wayEm script.
ECnter number tGwo:
A mCovie queen to pGlay the scene
Of Cbringing all the Dgood things out in mEme
But Cfor now, love, Glet's be real.
I nCever thought, I could aGct this way.
And CI've got to say thDat I just don't get it.
CI don't know where Gwe went wrong,
But Cthe feeling's gone, anDd I just can't getG it back.
IGf you could read my mind love
WFhat a tale my thoughts could tell
GJust like an old time movie
FBout a ghost from a wishing well
GIn a castle dark G7or a fortress sCtrong
With chainsD upon my feet Em
But storieCs always end G
And if Cyou read between the linG/Bes
You'll know that I'm just trying to DunderstEmand
The feelinCgs that you lack G
I neveCr thought I coulG/Bd feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don'Dt get it
CI don't know where we went wronG/Bg
But the feelings gone and I just can't gDet it bacGk
