[Intro: Steve Lacy & Fousheé]
 
(Ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
 
[Verse 1: Steve Lacy & Fousheé]
Am G F
Gemini
       G                Am  E F G
I'm a myth and I'm a legend
       Am    G F
Whom never wins
     G               Am    E F G
And might not ever play again
       Am       G F
Keep falling in (Keep falling in, yeah)
         G             Am   E F G
Love so fast and back out again
Am G F
Speeding
 G             Am   E F G
When I should ease in
 
 
[Pre-Chorus: Steve Lacy]
Am     G     F       E
Oh, I know myself, my sins
Am      G        F      E
Dug my pit, then I fell in
Am            G       F        E
Pulled the trigger, killed us both
Am        G          F         E
Lesson learned but truth gets old
 
 
[Chorus: Steve Lacy & Fousheé]
Am                G                F
Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
   E
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Am                   G               F
Little of pleasure, little depression (Ooh, ah)
   E
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Am                G                F
Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
    E
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Am                 G                 F
How can I tell if? How can I measure? (Ooh, ah)
       E
If I don't know (Ooh, ah)
 
 
[Post-Chorus: Steve Lacy]
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba
 
Ba-ba-ba
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba (Woah)
 
Ba-ba-ba (Ah)
 
 
[Verse 2: Steve Lacy]
  Am                G           F                E
I lookеd up at the ceiling as I draft my "I'm so sorry" text
Am                G                F              E
Don't rеgret the choice I chose but do regret the mess I made
Am              G                  F                  E
I see you hurt, I wish I could just hold you tight and close
Am                    G             F            E        Am
Don't need long, just wanna say, "I love you and miss you most"
 
 
[Pre-Chorus: Steve Lacy]
Am    G         F     E
Oh, I know myself, my skin
Am      G            F          E
Rolling stones don't crawl back in
Am      G           F    G  E
Daddy's faults fell down on me
Am         G         F       E
Break that curse for sweet relief
 
 
[Chorus: Steve Lacy & Fousheé]
Am                G                F
Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
   E
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Am                  G                F
Little of pleasure, little depression (Ooh, ah)
   E
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Am                G                F
Little of heaven, little unpleasant (Ooh, ah)
   E
I don't know (Ooh, ah)
Am                 G                 F
How can I tell if? How can I measure? (Ooh, ah)
      E
If I don't know (Ooh, ah)
 
 
[Post-Chorus: Steve Lacy & Fousheé]
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
 
[Verse 3: Steve Lacy & Fousheé]
Am              G
Mercury running amuck in my mind
      F                      G
Can't tell if I'm winning or falling behind
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Am                  G
Venus in retrograde got me in bed
    F                          E
And thinkin' 'bout all of the shit that I said
 
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba, ba-ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
 
Ba-ba-ba (Ooh, ah, ooh, ah)
Am                   G
Gemini scope give me depth 'til I'm dead
    F                       G
But I can't seem to get the fuck out of my head
      Am                       G
Well, fuck it, I'll just cop a Porsche instead
  F                      G
I do as I please and you see where it lead
      Am                           G
Guess somethin' bad ain't 'bout to happen to me
     F                         G
You think I'm two-faced, I can name twenty-three
 
 
[Bridge: Steve Lacy]
F  E                 F
My layers, all these sides
F               G           D
Could you stick by for the ride?
        F            E          F           G
It's a thrill, and I don't even know how to feel
 
It might be too real
 
Might be too-
 
Real, might be too real, real
 
I said, "Might be too-"
 
Might, I said, "Might be too real, real"
 
I said, "Might be too real"
 
 
[Outro: Fousheé & Steve Lacy]
  G            Am
Excuse me if I lied
F          G
I forgot I said that
    G              Am
Can you forgive my tongue?
     F                 G
I'll show you where my head at
  G                   Am
I don't think I'm the one
    F               G
But I could be your girlfriend
     G             F

                  Gemini
I'm a myth and I'm a legend
Who never wins
And might not ever play again
Keep falling in
Love so fast then back out again
Speeding
When I should ease in

Oh I know myself, my sins
Dug my pit then I fell in
Pulled the trigger, killed us both
Lesson learned but truth gets old

Little of heaven, little unpleasant
I don't know
Little of pleasure, little depression
I don't know
Little of heaven, little unpleasant
I don't know
How can I tell if? How can I measure?
If I don't know

I looked up at the ceiling
As I draft my "I'm so sorry" text
Don't regret the choice I chose
But do regret the mess I made
I see you hurt and wish
I could just hold you tight and close
Don't need long, just wanna say
I love you and miss you most

Oh I know myself, my skin
Rolling stones don't crawl back in
Daddy's faults fell down on me
Break that curse for sweet relief

Little of heaven, little unpleasant
I don't know
Little of pleasure, little depression
I don't know
Little of heaven, little unpleasant
I don't know
How can I tell if? How can I measure?
If I don't know

Mercury running amuck in my mind
Can't tell if I'm winning or falling behind
Venus in retrograde got me in bed
And thinking 'bout all of the shit that I said
Gemini scope give me depth 'till I'm dead
But I can't seem to get the fuck out my head
Well fuck it, I'll just cop a Porsche instead
I do as I please and you see where it lead
Guess something bad ain't 'bout to happen to me
You think I'm two-faced, I can name twenty-three

My layers, all these sides
Could you stick by for the ride?
It's a thrill
And I don't even know how to feel
Might be too real
Might be too
Real
Might be too real, real
I said might be too
I said might be too real real
I said might be too real

Excuse me if I lied
I forgot I said that
Can you forgive my tongue?
I'll show you where my head at
I don't think I'm the one
But I could be your girlfriend
