Read My Mind
Album: Sam's Town

Intro: D D/B Asus4 A x2

Verse 1:

D D/B
On the corner of main street

Asus4 A
Just tryin' to keep it in line

D D/B
You say you wanna move on and

Asus4 A
You say I'm falling behind

Pre Chorus:

D D/B Asus4 A
Can you read my mind?

D D/B Asus4 A
Can you read my mind?

Verse 2:

D D/B
I never really gave up on

Asus4 A
Breakin' out of this two-star town

D D/B
I got the green light, I got a little flight

Asus4 A
I'm gonna turn this thing around

Pre Chorus:

D D/B Asus4 A
Can you read my mind?

D D/B Asus4 A
Can you read my mind?

Chorus:

G D
The good old days, the honest man;

A
The restless heart, the Promised Land

G D
A subtle kiss that no one sees;

A
A broken wrist and a big trapeze


G D
Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind

A A/Bb Bm9
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine

G A
Before you go, can you read my mind?


Verse 3:


D D/B
It’s funny how you just break down

Asus4 A
Waitin' on some sign

D D/B
I pull up to the front of your driveway

Asus4 A
With magic soakin' my spine


Pre Chorus:

D D/B Asus4 A
Can you read my mind?

D D/B Asus4 A
Can you read my mind?


Chorus:


G D
The teenage queen, the loaded gun;

A
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One

G D
A southern drawl, a world unseen;

A
A city wall and a trampoline

G D
Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind

A A/Bb Bm9
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine

G
Before you jump

A Bm9
Tell me what you find when you read my mind

G D
Slippin’ in my faith until I fall

He never returned that call

G D
Woman, open the door, don't let it sting

A
I wanna breathe that fire again

She said

Bm9 A
Well I don't mind, you don't mind

G D
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine

Bm9
Put your back on me

A
Put your back on me

G D D/B
A
Put your back on me


Outro:

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun

D D/B Asus4 A
When you read my mind
