I left a few chords out that Flowers plays in the verses on his synth, otherwise it
would have been confusing, but this is the gist...

[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        Bbdim7      Bm
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine
  F#m       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        Bbdim7      Bm
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine
  F#m       G
Before you jump,
                 A                     Bm
Tell me what you find when you read my mind

[Chorus]
 
               G             D
Slippin’ in my faith until I fall
            A
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
             Bm              A
Well I don't mind, you don't mind
            G                  D
Coz I don't shine if you don't shine
         A/C#       Bm
Put your back on me
                 A
Put your back on me
                 G
Put your back on me
 
D     D/B     Asus4     A
 
 
[Outro]
 
D                            D/B               Asus4            A
  The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
                 D     D/B     Asus4     A
When you read my mind
 
D     D/B     Asus4     A
