C#
On the corner of main street
G#sus4                     G#
Just tryin' to keep it in line
C#
You say you wanna move on and
G#sus4                G#
You say I'm falling behind
                 C#  A#m7 Fm G#sus4 G#
Can you read my mind?
                 C#  A#m7 Fm G#sus4 G#
Can you read my mind?

I never really gave up on
Breaking out of this two-star town
I got the green light, I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around
Can you read my mind? (Oooh)
Can you read my mind? (Oooh)

Chorus:
             F#                C#
The good old days, the honest man
             G#
The restless heart, the promised land
          F#               C#
A subtle kiss that no one sees
          G#
A broken wrist and a big trapeze
                 F#                 C#
Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
             G#        F        A#m
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine
           F#                   G#
Before you go, can you read my mind?

It’s funny how you just break down
Waiting on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soaking my spine
Can you read my mind? (Oooh)
Can you read my mind? (Oooh)

Chorus:
The teenage queen, the loaded gun
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, a world unseen
A city wall and a trampoline
Oh, well, I don't mind, if you don't mind
'Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you jump, tell me what you find
When you read my mind

                F#             C#
Slippin’ in my faith until I fall
            G#
He never returned that call
                 F#                  C#
Woman, open the door, don't let it sting
                      G#
I wanna breathe that fire again, she said
         A#m                G#
I don't mind, if you don't mind
               F#                 C#
Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
                 A#m
Put your back on me
                  G#
Put your back on me
                  F#
Put your back on me

C#
The stars are blazing like
 A#m7  Fm      G#sus4          G#
rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
                  C#  A#m7 Fm G#sus4 G#
When you read my mind
