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

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