If You Could Read My Mind (chromatic) Harmonica Tab
By Gordon Lightfoot
Key: G
7 -6* 7 -7 7 -5 7
If you could read my mind love
-6 -6 -6 6 6 -5 -5
What a tale my thoughts would tell
7 -6* 7 -7 7 -5 7
Just like an old time mov-ie
-6 -6 -6 6 6 6 -5 -5
‘Bout a ghost from a wish-ing well
-5 -5 -5 6 -6 6 -6 -7 7 7
In a cas-tle dark or a for-tress strong
-7 -8 -7 7 -7 7
With chains up-on my feet
7 -6* 6 6 -5 -5
You know that ghost is me
-5 -6* 7 7 7 -6* 7 7
And I will nev-er be set free,
7 -6* 7 7 -7 -8 -7 7 -7 7
As long as I’m a ghost that you can’t see
If I could read your mind, love
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a pap-er-back nov-el
The kind the drug-store sells
Then you reached the part
Where the heart-aches come
The he-ro would be me.
But he-ros of-ten fail
And you won’t read the book a-gain
Be-cause the end-ing just to hard to take
-5 -5 6 -6 6 -6 -7 7 7
I’d walk a-way, like a mov-ie star
7 -7 -8 -7 -7 7 -7 7
Who gets burned in a three-way script
-6* 6 6 -5 -5 -5 -6* 7 7
En-ter num-ber two: a mov-ie queen
7 -6* 7 7 7 -6* 7 7
To play the scene of bring-ing all
-7 -8 -7 7 -7 7
The good things out of me
7 7 -6* 6 6 -5 -5
But for now love, let’s be real
-5-6* 7 7 7 7 -6* 7 7
I nev-er thought I could act this way
7 7 -6* 7 7
And I’ve got to say
7 -7 -8 -7 7 -7
that I just don’t get it
-6* 7 7 7 -6* 7 7
I don’t know where we went wrong
7 7 -6* 7 7
But the feel-ing’s gone
7 -7 -8 -7 7 -7 7
and I just can’t get it back
7 -6* 7 -7 7 -5 7
If you could read my mind love
-6 -6 -6 6 6 -5 -5
What a tale my thoughts would tell
7 -6* 7 -7 7 -5 7
Just like an old time mov-ie
-6 -6 -6 6 6 6 -5 -5
‘Bout a ghost from a wish-ing well
-5 -5 -5 6 -6 6 -6 -7 7 7
In a cas-tle dark or a for-tress strong
-7 -8 -7 7 -7 7
With chains up-on my feet
7 -6* 6 6 -5 -5
But stor-ies al-ways end
-5 -6* 7 7 7 -6* 7 7
And if you read be-tween the lines
7 -6* 7 7 -7 -8
You’d know that I’m just try’n
-7 7 -7 7
To un-der-stand
7 -6* 6 6 -5 -5
The feel-ings that you lack.
-5-6* 7 7 7 7 -6* 7 7
I nev-er thought I could feel this way
7 7 -6* 7 7
And I’ve got to say
7 -7 -8 -7 7 -7
That I just don’t get it.
-6* 7 7 7 -6* 7 7
I don’t know where we went wrong
7 7 -6* 7 7
But the feel-ings gone,
7 -7 -8 -7 7 -7 7
And I just can’t get it back.
