You need to use common Axis X for both lines. Make a chart with 2021 line only. Then create a measure for last year data (it must return Jan 2020 value if selected period is Jan 2021 and so on, you can use https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dax/sameperiodlastyear-function-dax) and use this measure for your second line.

Did you create a calendar table that connected with your Data table ? If no , then you need to create it. You can find million scripts to create it , if you can't find any let me know.
Then connect calendar table with your "Date" field as a key with your data table.
Then Create a measure for current year : Revenue_CY = Sum(gross_sales)
For LY you need to create a measure like this : Revenue_LY = Calculate(Revenue_CY ,sameaslastperiod(calendar[date])) or Revenue_LY = Calculate(Revenue_CY ,dateadd(calendar[date],-1,Year))
Hope that can work for you as worked for me.
Don't forget to give thumbs up 👍and accept this as a solution if it helped you.
