In My Mind
SR-71
by Andrew
Eb Tuning

I saw SR-71 last June at the Recher right after Jeff their bassist died. Mitch stood
up and played an acoustic version of this song all by himself, and dedicated it to
Jeff.  I decided to post this in case any of you were wondering how he played it.

Chorus
D (xx0232@1)            A (x02220@1)                        Em7
   There in my mind, in my dreams you can hide,
          Aand (x02220@1)every night I'm gonna bring you back to life!
D (xx0232@1)            A (x02220@1)                                Em7
   There in my mind, just like an angel bathed in light,
           Atellin' (x02220@1)me everything's gonna be alright...
D (xx0232@1)                                (Dsus2)
   ...if I can just fall asleep tonight.

Bridge(only strum the downbeats)
Dsus2 (xx0230@1)                  A (x02220@1)  Have you ever felt so helpless,
                      Em7
the walls built to protect us,
             Dsus2suddenly (xx0230@1)are gone?
Dsus2 (xx0230@1)                           A (x02220@1)  And you hate everything that's breathing,
                        Em7
the life you're used to cheating,
                   Dsus2has (xx0230@1)finally caught on.
