Catalyst chords by Anna Nalick

Intro:

G  Em C A7 G


Verse 1:

G         Em
LA lights
                                      C      A7
never shine quite as bright as in the movies
            G
Still wanna go?
        G                     Em
'cause something here in the way,
                                 C      A7
In the way that we're constantly moving
                G
Reminds you of home.

Chorus:

          C                          Em
So you're taking these pills for to fill up your soul
           B                       Em
And you're drinking then down with cheap alcohol
     C                     Em
And I'd be inclined to be yours for the taking
    B                     Em
And part of this terrible mess that you're making,
    C    A7
But me,
A7
I'm the catalyst


Instrumental:

G  Em C A7 G


Verse 2:

     G            Em
When you say love
                       C      A7
Is a simple chemical reaction
             G
Can't say I agree,
          G                Em
'cause my chemical, yeah, yeah,
                       C      A7
Left me a beautiful disaster,
                           G
Still love's all is all I see.


Chorus 2:

       C                          Em
So I'm taking these pills for to fill up my soul,
        B                       Em
And I'm drinking them down with cheap alcohol
     C                      Em
And you'd be inclined to be mine for the taking,
    B                     Em
And part of this terrible mess that I'm making,
     C    A7
But you,
A7
you're the catalyst


Brief Interlude:

G


Bridge:

               C                      Em                   B
And you'll be vein, and you'll be the pain, you'll be the scar.
               C              Em                   B
You'll be the road, rolling below, the wheels of a car,
                 C          Em
And all of your thoughts on God
       B
Don't know if I'm strong enough now.
               C                       A7              G     Em   B
And you'll be vein, and you'll be the pain, you'll be the...
G        Em  B A7

Verse 3:

      G         Em
These LA lights
                                            C
They don't shine quite as bright as back in Frisco,
        A7                       G
