Biography:
John Mark McMillan is an indie rock artist from Charlotte, North Carolina, United States, where he grew up playing in local rock bands. In June of 2005, McMillan released his first album, Hope Anthology Volume One. Just a few months after the release of this album, McMillan lost his best friend in a tragic accident, bringing him into a troubling time. It was the grief caused by this accident, and the subsequent rise from it, that inspired him to create his second anthology, The Song Inside The Sounds of Breaking Down.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The whole song is the chord progression F#-E-A-D.
Depending on which version you play (Mercury & Lightning or Mercury Session) determines how you play it.
This leaves a lot of room for improv.
ENJOY!
[Verse 1]
F# E
I've been chasing God
A D
I've been chasing mercury and lightning
F# E
And I've been pressing hard
A D
I've been coming up short
F# E
Lately, I've been thinking about
A D
What's gonna happen with you and I
F# E
I need a new religion
A D
Or I need a new lie
F# E A D
[Verse 2]
F# E
I've been on the phone
A D
I've been chasing mercury and lightning
F# E
Pressing for the deal to close
A F#
I've been coming up short
E
Lately, I've been thinking about
A D
What's going on between you and I
F# E
I need a true religion
A D
Or I need a new lie
[Chorus]
F#
I swear I've heard the echoes of a voice
D
Like a dream that you feel, but you don't remember
F#
I've known it ever since I was a boy
D
Like a word on the tip of my tongue
F# E A D (x2)
F#
I swear I've heard the echoes of a voice
D
Like a dream that you feel, but you don't remember
F#
I've known it ever since I was a boy
D
Like a word on the tip of my tongue
[Instrumental]
F# E A D
