READ MY MIND - THE KILLERS

Standard Tuning (EADGBE), Capo 1

This tab covers all bars as played in the album version,


if a chord is played over more than one bar then it's either duplicated or
marked with a "(2x)".
The indentation should also be fine so that the chords match the words.

This is the version I play on my acoustic guitar, I hope you like it.

C Am7 Gsus4 G

[Verse 1]

C Am7
On the corner of main street
Gsus4 G
Just tryin' to keep it in line
C Am7
You say you wanna move on and
Gsus4 G
You say I'm falling behind
C Am7 Gsus4 G
Can you read my mind?
C Am7 Gsus4 G
Can you read my mind?

[Verse 2]

C Am7
I never really gave up on
Gsus4 G
Breakin' out of this two-star town
C Am7
I got the green light, I got a little fight
Gsus4 G
I'm gonna turn this thing around
C Am7 Gsus4 G
Can you read my mind?
C Am7 Gsus4 G
Can you read my mind?
[Chorus]

F C
The good old days, the honest man
G G
The restless heart, the promised land
F C
A subtle kiss that no one sees
G G
A broken wrist and a big trapeze
F C
Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
G E7 Am
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine
F G
Before you go, can you read my mind?

[Verse 3]

C Am7
Its funny how you just break down
Gsus4 G
Waitin' on some sign
C Am7
I pull up to the front of your driveway
Gsus4 G
With magic soakin' my spine
C Am7 Gsus4 G
Can you read my mind?
C Am7 Gsus4 G
Can you read my mind?

[Chorus]

F C
The teenage queen, the loaded gun
G G
The drop dead dream, the chosen one
F C
A southern drawl, a world unseen
G G
A city wall and a trampoline
F C
Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
G E7 Am
Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
F F
Before you jump, tell me what you
G G
find when you read my mind

[Solo]

Am G F F

[Chorus]

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

[Outro]

C Am7 Gsus4 G

C Am7 Gsus4 G
The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
C Am7 Gsus4 G
When you read my mind
C Am7 Gsus4 G
