[Verse 1: Alan Mora & Phantom Dog]
N.C.                          G  
I wish that you could read my mind
I wish you knew what made me Emmad
But when I sit down next to Bm7you
I still think I love C/Gyou
I wish that you could read my Gmind
I know this might be hard to Gsay
But you & I can't be this Emway
We fuss & fight like every Bm7night
I wanna make this C/Gright
I wish that you could read my GmindEm  
[Chorus: Alan Mora & Phantom Dog]
& there were C/Gdays I needed GyouEm  
& there were C/Gnights where my hate GgrewEm  
But I C/Galways loved GyouEm  
Even C/Gwhen you were Gthrough
[Verse 2: Alan Mora & Phantom Dog]
N.C.                       G  
I wish that everything was fine
I wish that you would leave my Emmind
I think it's time that we move Bm7on
Love shouldn't feel this C/Gwrong
I wish that everything was Gfine
& after all that's said & Gdone
I realize you're not the Emone
You're someone that I'll always Bm7miss
I hate to tell you C/Gthis
But love was never on our GsideEm  
[Chorus: Alan Mora & Phantom Dog]
& there were C/Gdays I needed GyouEm  
& there were C/Gnights where my hate GgrewEm  
But I C/Galways loved GyouEm  
Even C/Gwhen you were Gthrough
[Outro]
I wish that you could read my Gmind
