Verse 1
(E minor) I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous
(D major) I'm as tough as the (C major) crust of the Earth is
(E minor) I move mountains, I move churches
(D major) And I glow 'cause I (C major) know what my worth is
(B major) (E minor) I don't ask how hard the work is
(D major) Got a rough, indes (C major) tructible surface
(B major) Diamonds and platinum,
I find 'em, I flatten 'em
I take what I'm handed,
Verse 2
I break what's demanded, but
(E minor) Under the surface I feel berserk
as a (D major) tightrope walker in a (C major) three-ring circus
(E minor) Under the surface was Hercules (D major) ever like,
"Yo, I don't (C major) wanna fight Cerberus"?
(E minor) Under the surface
I'm pretty sure I'm (D major) worthless
if I can't be of (C major) service
A (B major) flaw or a crack, the straw in the stack
That breaks the camel's back
What breaks the camel's back?

Chorus 1
It's (E minor) pressure like a drip, drip, drip,
that'll never stop, (C major) whoa (D major)
(E minor) Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip,
'til you just go pop, (G major) whoa-oh-oh (D major)
(E minor) Give it to your sister, your sister's older
(C major) Give her all the heavy things
we can't shoulder
(G major) Who am I if I can't run with the ball? (B major) If I fall to
(E minor) Pressure like a grip, grip, grip,
and it won't let go, (C major) whoa (D major)
(E minor) Pressure like a tick, tick, tick,
'til it's ready to blow, (G major) whoa-oh-oh (D major)
(E minor) Give it to your sister, your sister's stronger
(C major) See if she can hang on a little longer
Who (G major) am I if I can't carry it all? (B major) If I falter
Verse 3
(E minor) Under the surface
I hide my nerves and it (D major) worsens,
I worry some (C major) thing is gonna hurt us
(E minor) Under the surface
The ship doesn't (D major) swerve as it heard
how big (C major) the iceberg is
(E minor) Under the surface
I think about my (D major) purpose
Can I somehow pre (C major) serve this?
Line (B major) up the dominoes, a light wind blows
You try to stop it tumbling
But on and on it goes
Bridge 1
But (G major) wait, if I could shake (B minor)
The crushing weight (D minor) of expectations (C major)
Would that free (C minor) some room up for (G major) joy?
Or relaxation? (B minor) Or simple (D minor) pleasure?
Instead, we measure (C major)
(C minor) this grow (E minor) ing pressure
Keeps (D major) growing, keep (A minor) going
'Cause (B major) all we know is
Chorus 2
(E minor) Pressure like a drip, drip, drip,
that'll never stop, (C major) whoa (D major)
(E minor) Pressure that'll tip, tip, tip,
'til you just go pop, (G major) whoa-oh-oh (D major)
(E minor) Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt
and see (C major) if she can handle
every family burden
Watch (G major) as she buckles and bends
but never breaks (B major)
No mistakes, just
(E minor) Pressure like a grip, grip, grip,
and it won't let go, (C major) whoa (D major)
(E minor) Pressure like a tick, tick, tick,
'til it's ready to blow, (G major) whoa-oh-oh (D major)
(E minor) Give it to your sister and never wonder
If (C major) the same pressure
would've pulled you under
Who (G major) am I if I don't have what it takes? (B major)
No cracks, no breaks
No mistakes, no (E minor) pressure
