If You Could Read My Mind

Gordon Lightfood / Gordon Lightfood: Sit Down Young Stranger (1970)

Intro: |: G Fmaj7 :|
G F
If you could read my mind love - What a tale my thoughts could tell!
G F
Just like an old time movie - 'bout a ghost from a wishin' well!
G Em C D Em C G
In a castle dark or a fortress strong - With chains upon my feet - You know that ghost is me;
C G/B Am7 D G Fmaj7 G
And I will never be set free - As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see.
 
G F
If I could read your mind love - What a tale your thoughts could tell?
G F
Just like a paperback novel - The kind that drugstores sell.
G Em C D Em C G
When you reach the part where the heartaches come, The hero would be me. But heroes often fail!
C G/B Am7 D G Fmaj7 G
And you won't read that book again - Because the ending's just too hard to take.

G Em C D Em
I'd walk away like a movie star - Who get's burned in a three way script.
C G C G/B
Enter number two - A movie queen to play the scene
Am7 D G C G/B
Of bringing all the good things out in me! But for now love, let's be real;
C G/B Am7 D
I never thought I could act this way - And I've got to say that I just don't get it;
C G/B Am7 D G
I don't know where we went wrong - But the feeling's gone - And I just can't get it back.

In a castle dark or a fortress strong - With chains upon my feet. But stories always end,
C G/B Am7 D G
And if you read between the lines - You'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand:
C G/B C G/B
The feelin's that you lack. I never thought I could feel this way,
Am7 D C G/B
And I've got to say that I just don't get it - I don't know where we went wrong,
Am7 D G Fmaj7 G
But the feelin's gone - And I just can't get it back.
