Tom: Em
[Intro]
Em
Em
[Intro]
Em
I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous
D C
I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is
Em
I move mountains
I move churches
D C B
And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is
Em
I don't ask how hard the work is
D C
Got a rough, indestructible surface
B
Diamonds and platinum,
I find 'em, I flatten 'em
B
I take what I'm handed,
I break what's demanded, but
[Primeira Parte]
Em
Under the surface
D
I feel berserk as a tightrope walker
C
In a three-ring circus
Em
Under the surface
D
Was hercules ever like
C
“yo, I don't wanna fight cerberus?”
Em
Under the surface
D
I'm pretty sure I'm worthless
C
If I can't be of service
B
A flaw or a crack
B
The straw in the stack
B
That breaks the camel's back
B
What breaks the camel's back?
[Refrão 1]
Em
It's pressure like a drip, drip, drip,
C D
That'll never stop, whoa
Em
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip
G D
Till you just go pop, whoa-uh-uh
Em
Give it to your sister,
Your sister's older
C
Give her all the heavy things
We can't shoulder
G B
Who am I if I can't run with the ball?
If I fall to
Em
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip,
C D
And it won't let go, whoa
Em
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick
G D
Till it's ready to blow, whoa-uh-uh
Em
Give it to your sister,
Your sister's stronger
C
See if she can hang on a little longer
G B
Who am I if I can't carry it all?
If I falter
[Segunda Parte]
Em
Under the surface
D
I hide my nerves and it worsens,
C
I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us
Em
Under the surface
D
The ship doesn't swerve as it heard
C
How big the iceberg is
Em
Under the surface
D
I think about my purpose
C
Can I somehow preserve this?
B
Line up the dominoes
B
A light wind blows
B
You try to stop it tumbling
B
But on and on it goes, but
[Ponte]
G Bm
Wait, if I could shake
G7
The crushing weight
C Cm
Of expectations would that free
G
Some room up for joy?
Bm G7
Or relaxation? Or simple pleasure?
C Cm
Instead we measure
Em
This growing pressure
D Am
Keeps growing, keep going
B7
'cause all we know is
[Refrão 2]
Em
Pressure like a drip, drip, drip,
C D
That'll never stop, whoa
Em
Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip
G D
Till you just go pop, whoa-uh-uh
Em
Give it to your sister,
It doesn't hurt and
C
See if she can handle
Every family burden
G
Watch as she buckles and bends
B
But never breaks
N.C.
No mistakes, just
Em
Pressure like a grip, grip, grip,
C D
And it won't let go, whoa
Em
Pressure like a tick, tick, tick
G D
Till it's ready to blow, whoa-uh-uh
Em
Give it to your sister
And never wonder
C
If the same pressure
Would've pulled you under
G
Who am I,
B
If I don't have what it takes
No cracks, no breaks,
Em
No mistakes, no pressure
