Name of a song - 1/29/2006 9:11:28 PM

I heard a song on the radio while I was driving today and I loved it. The problem is I don't really know what it's called or who sings it. It's an older ballad-type song (60's or 70's) and may be called something like "If you could read my thoughts" or something similar and contains the words "like a ghost in chains" (or something close to that)
I have tried google-ing it and I have asked everyone I know and they all just think that I'm nuts. I am hoping that someone here is familiar with the song. I loved it and I have to hear it again.

You are very welcome siamsa. I generally know most of the words to any song that has ever gotten any radio play time written between 1965 and 1995....I just have no idea the name of the group or artist....LOL

Thanks everyone, I searched before, but I was off on the lyrics so nothing came up.
I have requested the CD from the library already
