Em
Em
[Verse 1]
EmI'm the strong one
I'm not nervous
D C I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is
EmI move mountains
I move churches
D C B And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is
[Verse 2]
EmI don't ask how hard the work is
D C Got a rough, indestructible surface
BDiamonds and platinum, I find 'em, I flatten 'em
BI take what I'm handed, I break what's demanded, but
[Chorus 1]
EmUnder the surface
D CI feel berserk as a tightrope walking in a three-ring circus
EmUnder the surface
D CWas Hercules ever like “Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus?”
EmUnder the surface
D CI'm pretty surе I'm worthless is I can't be of servicе
BA flaw or a crack
BThe straw in the stack
BThat breaks the camel's back
BWhat breaks the camel's back?
[Bridge]
Em C DIt's pressure like a drip, drip, drip, that'll never stop, whoa
Em G DPressure that'll tip, tip, tip till you just Go pop, whoa-uh-uh
EmGive it to your sister, your sister's older
CGive her all the heavy things we can't shoulder
G BWho Am I if I can't run with the ball?
If I fall to
Em C DPressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
Em C DPressure like a tick, tick, tick till it's ready to blow, whoa-uh-uh
EmGive it to your sister, your sister's stronger
CSee if she can hang on a little longer
G BWho Am I if I can't carry it all?
If I falter
[Chorus 2]
EmUnder the surface
D CI had my nerves and it worsens, I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us
EmUnder the surface
D CThe ship doesn't swerve as it heard how big the iceberg is
EmUnder the surface
DI think about my purpose
CCan I somehow preserve this?
BLine up the dominoes
BA light wind blows
BYou try to stop it tumbling
BBut on and on it goes, but
[Verse 3]
G Bm GWait, if I could shake the crushing weight
C Cm GOf expectations would that free some room up for joy?
Bm GOr relaxation? Or simple pleasure?
C Cm EmInstead we measure this growing pressure
D AmKeeps growing, keep going
B7'Cause all we know is
[Bridge]
Em C DPressure like a drip, drip, drip that'll never stop, whoa
Em G DPressure that'll tip, tip, tip till you just Go pop, whoa-uh-uh
EmGive it to your sister, it doesn't hurt and
CSee if she can handle every family burden
G BWatch as she buckles and bends but never breaks
N.C.
No mistakes, just
Em C DPressure like a grip, grip, grip, and it won't let go, whoa
Em G DPressure like a tick, tick, tick till it's ready to blow, whoa-uh-uh
EmGive it to your sister and never wonder
CIf the same pressure would've pulled you under
G BWho Am I, if I don't have what it takes
EmNo cracks, no breaks, no mistakes, no pressure
