VERSE 1 - Straight eighths
   If you could read my mind
   You’d say "baby you’re right 
   And I don’t wanna fight anymore"
   You’re usually righter than I am
   And I’m not a very good fighter
   Am I? No neither are you
   So let’s be through with this one
   Because some things never change

    G                   Am7       D7sus4    G                   Am7     D7sus4

 VERSE 2
   How can you be so calm
   When the truth is sometimes
   We live in the eye of the storm
   With everything going on around us
   I feel comfort in the sounds when you say
   It will be ok
   Like a star guiding me
   To the light of the day
   The doldrums could follow me

If you could read my mind
You'd say baby you were right
And I don't want to fight anymore
You're usually righter than I am
And I am not a very good fighter
And my, well neither are you
So lets be through with this one
Some things never change
I know you are still my same girl
Built her own frames for pictures that you paint
Lots in Monterrey, men across the bay, right back to my same girl, mm mm
How can you be so common
The truth is that sometimes you live in the eye of the storm
With everything going on around us
I feel comfort in the sound when you say it will be okay
Like a star brighten me to the light of the day
Old drums can follow me but not with my same girl
I built two room frames for the pictures that you paint
The lots in Monterrey, and then across the bay, right back to my same girl, mm mm
