If you could read my [A] mind love, what a tale my thoughts could [D] tell
Just like an old time [C] movie, about a ghost from a wishing [D] well
In a castle dark, [G] or a fortress [A] strong, with chains upon [Bm] my feet
[G] You know that [D] ghost is me, [G] and I will [D] never be set free
[Em] As long as [D] I'm a ghost that you can't see
If I could read your [G] mind love, what a tale your thoughts could [D] tell
Just like a paperback [G] novel, the kind the drugstores [D] sell
Then you reach the part [G] where the heartaches come
[A] The hero would [Bm] be me, [G] but heroes [D] often fail
[G] And you won't [D] read that book again, [Em] because the [E] ending's just too hard [D] to take
[C] [D]
[Am] [D]
I'd walk away [G] like a movie star, [A] who gets burned in a three [Bm]-way script
[G] Enter number [F#] two
[G] A movie queen, [D] to play the scene, [Em] of bringing all [A] the good things out [Bm] in me
But [G] for now love, [F#] let's be real
[G] I never thought [D] I could feel this way
[Em] But I've got to say [A] that I just don't get [G] it
I don't know [D] where we went wrong
But [N] the feeling's just too hard to take
Just like an old time [C] movie, about a ghost from a wishing [D] well
In a castle dark, [G] or a fortress [A] strong, with chains upon [Bm] my feet
[G] You know that [D] ghost is me, [G] and I will [D] never be set free
[Em] As long as [D] I'm a ghost that you can't see
If I could read your [G] mind love, what a tale your thoughts could [D] tell
