Johnny Cash - If you could read my mind

^AIf you could read my mind, love ^GWhat a tale my thoughts could tell ^AJust like an old time movie ^G'bout a ghost from a wishing-well ^AIn a ca^Dstle dark or a fortress strong ^EWith chains upo^F#mn my feet You ^Dknow th^Aat ghost is me An^Dd I w^F#mill never be set free As ^Bm7long as I^E'm a ghost you ^Acan't see

^AIf I could read your mind, love ^GWhat a tale your thoughts could tell ^AJust like a paperback novel ^GThe kind that drugstores sell ^AWhen you rea^Dch the part where the heartaches come The ^Ehero wou^F#mld be me An^Dd heroe^As often fail ^AAnd you^F#m won't read that book again ^Bm7Because t^Ehe en^Ading's just too hard to take

^AI'd wal^Dk away like a movie star Who ^F#mgets burn^Ded in a three way script And ^Eenter ^Anumber two A ^Dmovie q^F#mueen to play the scene ^Bm7Of bringin^Eg all t^Ahe good things out in me But ^Dfor now^A, love, let's be real I ^Dnever tho^F#mught I could act this way An^Bm7d I've go^Et to say that I just don't get it I ^Ddon't kn^F#mow where we went wrong Bu^Bm7t the feeling's gone An^Ed I jus^At can't get it back

^A(Ve^Grse^A 3.^G..) ^AIf you could read my mind, love, ^GWhat a tale my thoughts could tell ^AJust like an old time movie ^G'bout a ghost from a wishing-well ^AIn a ca^Dstle dark or a fortress strong ^EWith cha^F#mins upon my feet The ^Dstory always ^Aends

An^Dd if you^F#m read between the lines Yo^Bm7u'll know ^Ethat ^AI'm just trying to understand The^D feeling t^Ahat you lack I ^Dnever thou^F#mght I could feel this way And I've ^Bm7got to say ^Ethat I just don't get it I^D don't kn^F#mow where we went wrong Bu^Bm7t the feeling's gone An^Ed I just can't get it back
