Ian Tyson - If you Could Read My Mind chords
Start Jamming...
[E] [A]
If you could read my mind [G] love, what a tale I thought you'd tell
[D] [A]
Just like an old time movie, [G]
about a ghost from a wishing well
[A]
In a castle [C#] [A] dark, [Bm] or a fortress strong, [E] with chains upon [F#m] my feet
And [D] you know that ghost [A] is me
I [D] will never [A] be set free, [B] as long [Bm] as [D] I'm [E] a ghost that you [A] can't see
I'd [E] [G] [A]
[Bm] [A] walk away [D] like a movie star [E] who gets burned in a three-way [F#] script
[F#m] [C#m] [D] Enter [A] number two
[D]
Moving queen [A] to play the scene, [Bm] bringing all the [E] good things out [F#] in me
[F#m] But [D] for now love, let's be [A] real
I [D] never thought I [A] could act this way, and [Bm] I've got to say [E] that I just don't get it
[D] I don't know [A] where we went wrong, [Bm] but the feeling's gone, [E] and I just can't get [A] it back
