Gatsby Chords

[Verse 1]
Bb                        F
We put ourselves to the side
                       C
Chasing after green lights
 
The closer it seemed
                             Bb
Yet still right out of our reach
                        F
Even when fingertips brushed it
                          C
Blisters from where we touched it
 
Get so close and we blink
 
It’s still so far away
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                       F           
Instead of nursing the relationship, 
             C
we tore it apart
                        
I broke it off and sunk 
                              Bb
beneath my skin alone in the dark
                  F
Copacetic and distant
                           C
Forgot just what I was missing
 
Chasing after the green light
 
[Chorus]
Bb                       F
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                    C
In the sun, underground
 
I need a miracle, oh
                Bb
I need a miracle
                 F
Coasting on chеmicals
                     C
To get high when I’m low
 
I need a miracle oh
 
[Verse 2]
Bb                     F
Our lovе became polarized
                       C
Chasing after green lights
 
Surfing waves of self-blame
                          Bb
When it was out of our reach
                     F
Our current was disrupted
                 C
Radio silence sudden
 
Once so close and we blinked
 
Now you’re so far away
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                       F           
Instead of nursing the relationship, 
             C
we tore it apart
                        
I broke it off and sunk 
                              Bb
beneath my skin alone in the dark
                  F
Copacetic and distant
                        C
You were what I was missing
 
Chasing after the green light
 
[Chorus]
Bb                       F
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                    C
In the sun, underground
 
I need a miracle, oh
                Bb
I need a miracle
                 F
Coasting on chеmicals
                     C
To get high when I’m low
 
I need a miracle oh
Bb                      F
I miss the rush, the thrill of us
               C
Our nights together
 
I miss the feeling of being part
 
Of something better
Bb                      F
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                   C
I get high and I know
 
I need a miracle oh
 
[Bridge]
Dm                    C
Maybe you said it best
                           Bb
“I’ll be all you have left”
 
When the lightning is gone
 
And to hell with the rest
Dm                      C
Your words radiate deep
                  Bb
In my insomniac sleepwalk
              C
Chasing the green light
 
[Chorus]
Bb                       F
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                    C
In the sun, underground
 
I need a miracle, oh
                Bb
I need a miracle
                 F
Coasting on chеmicals
                     C
To get high when I’m low
 
I need a miracle oh
 
 C                       G
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                    D
In the sun, underground
 
I need a miracle, oh
                C
I need a miracle
                 G
Coasting on chеmicals
                     D
To get high when I’m low
 
I need a miracle oh
 
C                      G
I miss the rush, the thrill of us
               D
Our nights together
 
I miss the feeling of being part
 
Of something better
C                      G
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                   D
I get high and I know
 
I need a miracle oh
 
 C                       G
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                    D
In the sun, underground
 
I need a miracle, oh
                C
I need a miracle
                 G
Coasting on chеmicals
                     D
To get high and I know
 
I need a miracle oh
 
C                      G
I miss the rush, the thrill of us
               D
Our nights together
 
I miss the feeling of being part
 
Of something better
C                      G
I’ve been up, I’ve been down
                   D
I get high and I know
 
I need a miracle oh
