[G]
[Em] [C]
[G] I've been locked inside, empty space [Em] in my heart
[C] And it seems to change, [G] oh
How it hurts me and how it's tearing [Em] me apart
[C] And it just goes on and on
[Em] Can you read my mind?
[C] You got the look in your [Dm]
eyes
[Em] Couldn't take the time
To [C] stay here [B] in your way
[G] I [D] wanna [Am] say goodbye, [D] goodbye
[G] Could you [D] try to decide if [C] this is what I'm worth?
[D] I've been so tired
[Em] Can you read my mind?
[C] [Dm] Oh, [G] can I hear your name?
You're so, so [Em] deep inside
[C] Still talking fake, [G] oh
What's wrong?
I'm telling you [C] to stay
[G] Time will [Em] heal the pain
But it [C] just goes on and on
[Em] Can [C] [D]
you [Em] read my mind?
[C] You got the [B] look in your eyes
[G] [D] [Am] Couldn't take the [D] time
[G] Could [D] you smile when it's time?
[C] Cause you wanna cry, [D] wanna cry
[G] But [D] if I didn't wanna [Am] say goodbye, [D]
goodbye
[G] Could [D] you smile when it hurts so [C] deep inside?
[D] And you let [G] me [Em] [C]
[G] [Em]
[C] [Am] down
Can't erase you, [D]
[Am] count my mistakes
Can [C] you hear me?
[D]
Since you [G] said goodbye
[D] Don't wanna [Am] say goodbye, [D] goodbye
[G] Could [D] you smile when it's time?
Cause you [C] wanna cry, [D] wanna cry
[G] But [D] if I didn't wanna [Am] say goodbye, [D]
goodbye
[G] Could you [D] smile when it hurts so [C] deep inside?
[D] And then we'll go
[G] [Em] [C] [G] [Em] [C]
