[Verse]
G                               Dm6/F
If you could read my mind love, what a tale my thoughts could tell
G                               Dm6/F
Just like an old time movie    'bout a ghost from a wishin' well
G           G7        C                     D                   Em
In a castle dark or a fortress strong  with chains upon my feet
    C                  G  [Fill #2]
You know that ghost is me
    C            G/B            Am7           D                    G
And I will never be set free as long as I'm a ghost that you can't see
 
[Riff #1]  G
 
G                                Dm6/F
If I could read your mind love,  what a tale your thoughts could tell
G                                Dm6/F
Just like a paperback novel      the kind that drugstores sell
G                  G7             C                   D             Em
When you reach the part where the heartaches come the hero would be me
    C            G   [Fill #2]
But heroes often fail
    C                   G/B        Am7                  D                G
And you won't read that book again because the ending's just too hard to take
 
[Fill #3] G      Dm6/F   G      Dm6/F [Fill #3]
 
G        G7          C                   D                     Em
I'd walk away like a movie star who gets burned in a three way script
C            G   [Fill #2]
Enter number two
  C              G/B               Am7              D                  Em
A movie queen to play the scene of bringing all the good things out in me
C                          G   [Fill #2]
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 feelin's gone and I just can't get it back
 
G (Riff #1)
 
G                                 Dm6/F
If you could read my mind love,   what a tale my thoughts could tell
G                              Dm6/F
Just like an old time movie   'bout a ghost from a wishin' well
G           G7        C                    D              Em
In a castle dark or a fortress strong with chains upon my feet
    C              G   [Fill #2]
But stories always end
    C           G/B                      Am7                D              Em
And if you read between the lines you'll know that I'm just tryin' to understand
    C                 G   [Fill #2]
The feelin's that you lack
  C                     G/B                    Am7               D
I never thought I could feel 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 feelin's gone And I just can't get it back
 
 [Ending]
   G                               Dm6/F                (rit.)     G

Pretty good tab. I play the Dm6/F a little differently -- (1)x3201. To my ears playing the higher strings sounds more like the record once vocal starts. However, having that low F makes sense for the verse and fill sections. Also, your Am7 is actually A7sus4, as it's diagrammed. It sounds like the correct voicing when I play it. My last thought is about the G to G7 transition. The lyrics should be offset 1 space because the G chord starts before the lyrics come in. These are nickel/dime things for sure. Really nice job.
