Gordon Lightfoot - If You Could Read My Mind

Tabbed By Ken Boldt with much help from other tab sites

This is just the chords for those of you who just want to strum along like I do and

don't care so much for picking out the individual notes

-----------
Chords:
G 320003
F X33211
C X32010
D X00230 or X00232 (play with it for variety)
Em 022000
G/B X20003
Am7 X02010
-----------

A couple of notes:

1) in order to be in the correct key, capo on the 2nd fret.

2) Use the first string (high E) seldomly. Gordon plays this song entirely picking and

rarely picks the first string.
